Built in
1952 by Hong Kong Tramways
Double-Decker
#12 car was built in 1952
by and for Hong Kong Tramways. The car was retired in 1985. It was
shipped to Vancouver BC for Expo '86. Hong Kong built a replacement #12
in 1987. The original #12 later found its way to Portland.
It had been stored in
Portland for many years by the late Mr.
Naito
The
car lacks motors and it is narrow gauge so it may not ever operate again.
However, it is a fine addition to the collection. Just watch your head. The
ceilings are a little low! Cars similar to this still operate in busy
Hong Kong!
