Subject: [CBQ] First motor car
We had a brief discussion back in August about the first (possibly first)
gasoline motor car. I've now found the following piece in an article (American
Engineer & Railroad Journal Sept. 1905 page 335) about motor cars, discussing
the different motive power options and costings of motor car operation.
"The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railway has recently built a 225-h.p.
gasoline electric motor car designed to haul a trailer for carrying passengers,
the motor car itself being used for the power equipment, mail and baggage. A
test of this car was made recently, but as yet we have no figures on the actual
cost of operation."
Presuming this to be a reference to the same piece of equipment, it confirms
that this was railway equipment as opposed to a converted road vehicle.
Needless to say, if I find any published reports on the test, I'll let you know.
