This carbody is Ex-Pacific Electric 1046, formerly Visalia Electric 301, seen here on August 7 2004.
Built in 1908 by the American Car Company as an interurban trailer, this car had windows that fully retracted into the ceiling, making it a semiconvertible.
In 1919 it was sold to PE, where it remained in service until retirement in 1934. In 1959 the carbody was acquired by OERM.
