Jamestown, Westfield & Northwestern
Work Car 308
A June 1935 photo from the John
Woodbury collection showing the car in Jamestown.
Jamestown, Westfield & Northwestern work car number 308 was delivered in 1914 by the Cincinnati Car Company, though I don't know if it started life as a work car or was converted into one. This car also saw extensive use on the Jamestown Street Railway for rail work.
An April 1941 photo from the collection of Phil Soyring shows the car in Jamestown. Notice snowplow car 306 in the right of the picture.
