This an unusual front door bus with a ladder in the back so people could ride on top, This is a steam powered bus built in Hoquiam, Gray's Harbor County, Washington in 1902.  It was in passenger service between Aberdeen and Hoquaim for just eleven days when it slipped off the road and into a creek, breaking a passenger's neck in the process.  The lawsuit drove the company out of business (Steve found this out with magic!)
