Interurbans 1101-1110
These 10 cars were built by St. Louis Car in 1907 and were similar to the earlier 1001 thru 1025. They were, however, equipped to run on either the low voltage lines or the new 3300 volt single-phase AC lines beyond St. Martins and Waukesha Beach. In 1909, the high voltage lines were changed to 1200 volt DC, and the equipment on the cars reflected the change.
Beginning in 1924, with the upgrade of the interurban lines, these cars were included in the rebuilding program. When rebuilt they were renumbered to make room for the rebuilt former Milwaukee Northern cars. In 1946, the cars were sold to KMCL along with the remaining interurban lines. They survived into Milwaukee Rapid Transit & Speedrail ownership in 1949.

It was a control trailer and had an extra baggage door cut into the left side. It was sold as a summer cottage in 1955 when the L&PS abandoned passenger service.

Put your heart aside. Duty comes first, But when fulfilling your duty, put your heart into it. It helps.
