This is primarily a bus preservation organization. According to the Preserved North American Electric Car list, however, this Virginia museum owns two Roanoke Brill streetcars; yet the website roster does not list them.

Well, you have to look closely. If you look at the CC&TM restoration page at http://www.commonwealthcoach.org/restore.html the 1927 Brill from the 42-47 series is listed. For the 1917 car, you have to look through some of their news items - http://www.commonwealthcoach.org/news/fall_06.html and http://www.commonwealthcoach.org/news/winter_06_07.html have some information.
