Chattanooga
In the 1920s the Twin City Rapid Transit Company built cars for other cities such as Chicago, Grand Rapids, Michigan, Evansville, Indiana, Chattanooga, Tenn. and Lynchburg, Va.  These cars were built under the name Lightweight Noiseless Car Company and most specimens had trucks with herringbone gears instead of the conventional direct drive gearing found on trolley cars.  Here is the lone Chattanooga car in its later years sporting conventional Brill trucks.
