This two man inspection car was built in 1948 by Fairmont Railway Motors. Signalmen especially relied on this motor car for transportation as they inspected signals, automatic switches, and crossing gates. Known for its light weight and easy handling on or off the rails, cars such as this could travel up to 50 miles per hour. Motor cars were phased out of service by the railroads in the late 1970's.
