Post subject:  NYW&B interurban

I was talking with a friend this evening about Stillwell passenger cars and the New York, Westchester & Boston Railroad came up. I admit I don't know much about the line but upon checking the internet, found out that this is the centennial of the lines founding. It operated between 1912 and 1937 when it was abandoned. It had a rather large fleet of electric m.u. cars, including Stillwell type cars, some of which apparently went to the New Haven. What was particularly interesting on the website I found about the NYW&B is that one of their m.u. cars still exists down in Peru and there apparently have been some efforts to return it to the U.S. Anyone know anything about this particular car? Thanks.

Les
