Route 15, Girard Streetcar was restored to
service in 1995 after about a thirteen-year period during which it
was one of three "suspended" Philadelphia routes. It runs a
total of 8.2 miles through North Philadelphia and West Philadelphia,
mostly along Richmond St. and Girard Ave.
This class of car is called the PCC II, and represents a total
rebuilding by Brookville Mine Equipment Corp. of post-World War II
vehicles. |
