Builder photo of 3612, one of 20-Kuhlman single end interurban cars, 53-feet long. This is the "blind" (left) side of the car. This Kuhlman Interurban does not have doors on the blind side. A quite beautiful or handsome piece of "Varnish" (as they used to be called) they were power hogs and not favored by PRCo. In addition to interurban service, they also hauled double-deck trailers on the likes of 73-Highland with the large park there attracting huge crowds. Built in 1910 they were scrapped between 1925 and 1928.
