As Delivered from Boeing in 1978

Resulting from the Nixon Administration's 'Buy American' policy, the LRV was to be a standardized American made modern trolley to follow in the footsteps of the very successful PCC. Originally built for The Boston MBTA and San Francisco MUNI, the cars were well liked by riders but had many maintenance problems resulting from the fact that Boeing-Vertol was a helicopter company. In the end no other city bought these vehicles and the two that did have been replacing them steadily ever since. The MBTA operates these in city streets, in subway tunnels, on elevated tracks, and on high speed railway runs.
