ADLAKE Reliable APR 1 , 1913 H. St. Ry. Co.

50 bucks, how could i pass over this..

 

I don't collect this type of thing but street railway has been a past interest with me and i still appreciate it especially when an item which really isn't in bad condition. is mostly all together and certainly double marked.

 

I think a far stretch to assume its lineage is that of Holliston street railway. or Hudson street railway.

a contact suggested Holyoke... or Hartford Street Railway Company.

 

the metal is very good condition compared to same types ive seen

this one a bit better. at least no rot or even a pin hole.
