Streetcars, were good for more than just public transportation... did you know they were used to plow snow along their route?

I like that many were made into little diners. See the inside of one at the Henry Ford museum https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlJgnymLmdtI8OLmPVVyVLDwrIu_dbieGbJN3IOO3-pzmthTRJgRZw4Us4Xl__mQBKjaoajgOaW6ZnvfuzgTlez1XC87PkCtlOmLJTYohTAJLP2M8Q3YC9kUEPLvL0txEWPSVFIdusTC8/s1600/Henry%2520Ford%2520Diner%5B1%5D.jpg it is the nicest I've seen, most are far more simple and less ornamental
And in San Diego I found one diner street car, and two homes made from street cars http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/06/survivors-of-era-i-doubt-anyone-else.html
