I and my Dad rode on the last car out of the Bloomfeild ave. car barn in Monclair NJ. Around 1951 or 1952.I don't remeber it at all but I would like to see if anyone has any pictures on it.My Dad was the operator on the car.

[edit] List of lines

I don't have all the information, so for now I'm compiling this on the talk page. Feel free to edit it as you would an article. --NE2 17:47, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

I found the notes I took a few years ago from a book on the lines. The entries with question marks don't match those notes. --NE2 10:41, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
