Text appearing next to the image:
The interesting type of construction car shown in the illus-tration was recently shipped to the Electric Tramway Com-pany of Lisbon, Portugal, by the J. G. Brill Company. An article in the Street Railway Journal of Jan. 27 last, de-scribed a shipment of twenty Brill semi-convertible cars foruse by the same company. The car illustrated is powerfully constructed and has heavy sub-sills and the posts which sup-port the roof are composed of angle-irons which are bent to conform to the shape of the roof. This post arrangement gives ample strength for the support of the two cranes, which are to be used for loading heavy pieces of material, such as wheels, axles, rails, etc., on the car or on a car alongside. crane is capable of lifting one ton. The cranes are of asimple type operated by two cranks. The car is mounted on the builders No. 21-E truck, which is equipped with track brakes as well as the ordinary form of brakes. The horizontal hand wheel shown at either end of the car, operates the track brakes.
