New Haven
Shore Line Electric Railway
Car 1, lettered for SLER successor New Haven & Shore Line Railway, is fresh from the builder in this photo.  Wason built three lightweight cars (1-3) in 1923 for the NH&SL's abbreviated operations.  After trolley operations ended in 1929, the cars were sold to Alabama Power in Tuscaloosa AL;  when trolley service ended in Tuscaloosa, the cars were sold in early 1942 to Montreal Tramways where they operated until 1958.
