Streetcars, were good for more than just public transportation... did you know they were used to plow snow along their route?

read about plowing snow with street cars: http://cincystreetcar.wordpress.com/2009/01/
I like that many were made into little diners. See the inside of one at the Henry Ford museum https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDeR-kZa6bn4an3wX00mdozqhK0butQLE0v4BQYNMjWhXjxh3LtfFwqIHO059Rx_epXLoUHJpQsdKx4ZSQRJ-53R90guFR5w7RKNawkhj9KBYnVkz2PH58Hnj2LtCsF1OnzrPrQ0DwU_s/s1600/Henry%2520Ford%2520Diner%5B1%5D.jpg it is the nicest I've seen, most are far more simple and less ornamentalSome were made into houses: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/09/street-cars-getting-second-life-as-home.html
And in San Diego I found one diner street car, and two homes made from street cars http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/06/survivors-of-era-i-doubt-anyone-else.html
