B-8722 Boston Brill 8722 at the Cambridge Commons looking towards East Cambridge, and it shows both the pre-renovation Memorial Hall straight ahead in the background as well as the Littauer Center for Public Administration just to the photographer's left, on its way to Lechmere Stn. Though Boston was primarily a Pullman city, their last batch of 50's era trolleys were Brills! Was it a Boston standard policy for every trolleybus to have an unrepaired dent? Photo by Leo Sullivan. Photo taken about 1959

B A Pullman-Standard on the Harward Square-Lechmere line on 24 AP 1936 only 13 days after the first line opened on 11 AP 1936. I suppose 13 days is too early for the trolley to get an unrepaired dent. Photo Submitted by Leo Sullivan.
