Mount Pleasant
This picture shows the gorgeously restored interior of Chicago Aurora & Elgin #320, at the Midwest Electric Railway Museum in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. Features like the stained-and-varnished mahogany walls, full empire ceiling and stained-glass windows were fully restored by MERM workers.  Made mostly of wood, #320 was obsolete the day it was rolled out of the Jewett shop in 1914.
