Another real boomer car, 473 is passing the Georgia Railroad headquarters and the Georgia Capital building westbound on Hunter Street at Piedmont on March 1 1944, inbound from Stone Mountain. 473 began life as Keokuk Electric 103, then Toledo and Indiana 135 and finally Georgia Power 473. It has the classic Stone and Webster look.
