41chevy Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 After their stint at the World's Fair the "ED" trams ended up on the boardwalk in Wildwood, N.J.They were eventually converted to electric power and lost their distinctive "E" model grilles.They still run trams on the boardwalk in Wildwood, maybe some little bit of them are left over from the "ED's"?Ron The ones at Wildwood were unrecognizable as the 39 /49 worlds Fair trams a few years ago. They probably didn't survive Sandy Here are a few of the others in Cyprus Gardens in 1947 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/30648-world-fair-macks/#findComment-175903 Share on other sites More sharing options...
