Edmonton 38
1912
Edmonton 38 is part of a group of the only "non-Canadian built" cars on the original Edmonton Radial Railway. These came from the St. Louis Car Company in 1912. Cars #32-46 had an arch roof, wood steel reinforced frame and carried 36 seats in their "as delivered" double ended configuration. Two St. Louis 47-B trucks were added in Edmonton beneath the 43' 10 1/2" body.
Three of these streetcars have been recovered by the ERRS. Edmonton 42 was rescued from the Sylvan Lake area and after restoration it became the main passenger carrier on our Fort Edmonton Park streetcar route. Restoration on Edmonton 33 was completed in 2010 and it began service on our High Level Bridge route in 2011. The body of Edmonton 38 awaits restoration.
