Seashore - Lynn & Boston 3256

The oldest piece of equipment built by Brill that can be considered an electric car is this 1888 single-truck open car, built as a horsecar but later converted to a primitive electric car. The body is stored on a work flat itself built on an unusual Peckham single truck, making for an odd overall appearance.
