Saturday, June 12. 2010Rio 1889 open car arrives
The Rio 1889 open car arrived on a flatbed around 5pm on June 12th. Unloading took about an hour. The car is currently in rough shape, but will make a good restoration project in the future. Additional info will be posted soon.

I have a site about Rio trams. In the near past I exchanged emails with Mr. Charles Long (Electric City Trolley Museum). He told me IRM had bought Rio tram 1889. I have photo of it running in Rio de Janeiro, on year 1949. Are you interested in that photo? Would you mind sending me photos of 1889 arriving to IRM? I put a link to IRM in my site and it would be very interesting if people visiting my site could see 1889 in your site, no matter how it is. I made this before, in my old link to Electric City Trolley Museum, and it was very commented by people who love trams in Brazil.
