Peter Witt Streetcar


This ex-Milan Peter Witt Streetcar carries the two-tone green color scheme.

Trivia: Peter Witt was a Cleveland Railway commissioner, who designed a model of streetcar, which is known by his name. Peter Witt cars were also built in Italy and used in several Italian cities, including Milan, where 200 Ventotto vehicles (introduced in 1928) are still in use. Eleven ex-Milan cars can be seen today on the streets of San Francisco, where they operate on the F Market & Wharves streetcar line.
