These long trailers (#601-609) were built by Cinci Car Co. for PRC about1914 or '15, and were used as such until 1922, mostly on the heaviest of PRC lines, #7 (N. Main/Wayne).  About 1923 the trailers were sent back to Cinci Car Co. for conversion into motorized streetcars. A front entry door was added, as the trailers were
strictly center enter/exit only. as streetcars, they were renumbered as #251-259. This shows 2 trailers being pulled by motor car #208 at the south storage yard of the Bolendar Ave. car barn.
