The Pacific Electric ran a fleet of these cars that resembled a double truck Birney, although they were built to a much heavier standard.  They commonly ran on local lines on the streets, and that is evident from the many dents found on almost all local cars.  Encounters with automobiles were not uncommon.  This Picture shows one of the 100s in it's pre-modernized dark red paint scheme with yellow lettering.
