EDMONTON 53 & 73

1913

Edmonton 53 and 73 were built in 1913, as part of an order of thirty-five streetcars of the same design obtained from the Preston Car and Coach Company. The cars were known as "Big Prestons" and most of them were running until abandonment of streetcar service in 1951. In fact, sister car No. 52 was the very last Edmonton streetcar in passenger service. The ERRS is in the early stages of restoring another sister car, Edmonton 65.
