They're good looking cars, Peter.

Was their performance anything special?

In the words of Oliver Hardy, "Another Fine Mess You've got us in!"

The windscreen of the Fiducia reminds me of that of the American
Osgood-Bradley "Electromobiles", the competitor to the Brill "Master

Units".

These ran in Scranton, Altoona and New Bedford. The New Bedford cars,

which

had pedal controls, were later sold to Steinway Transit in New York City

for

the Queensboro Bridge service, where they became the last streetcars to
operate in New York State, finally coming off in April 1957.

Attached are images of an Electromobile at Queens Plaza in New York, and a
Scranton car.
