PCC Car Rehabilitation


 

Car #3303

 

Here are some pictures of the recent rehab of  PCC #3303 at the BHRA.
This Ex-Boston Green Line PCC was manufactured by Pullman in
1951.  While extensive
attention was given to cosmetic appearance, the electrical and structural elements
were also given a thorough rebuild.
