PACIFIC ELECTRIC RAILWAY 52-PASSENGER INTERURBAN COMBINATION COACH AND EXPRESS CAR.
1372-1376 CLASS "PORTLAND COMBOS".
1372 AND 1376 BETA PREVIEWS IN 6.2 AND 7.2 METER WIRE HEIGHTS.
MESH AND TEXTURES BY TIM MUIR.
!! YOU MUST HAVE INSTALLED BIN PATCH v1.7.051922 OR LATER !! OR YOU WILL EXPERIENCE ENGINE FILE ERRORS !!
THESE TWO (FOUR) MODELS ARE WORKS-IN-PROGRESS PREVIEWS OF EQUIPMENT TO BE RELEASED IN FUTURE WITH THE ROUTE "PACIFIC ELECTRIC TERMINAL", PROJECTED RELEASE IN 2012. Those models to be released for the route will be for the 7.2 meter P.E.T. only, no 6.2 meter versions will be made for entire classes, but I will make at least two sample 6.2 meter versions of each type within classes.
Combination cars 1372-1376 were five of the best 17 combos purchased from Southern Pacific's abandoned Portland, Oregon "Red Electric" interurban lines in 1928 (the remaining 12 were scrapped). Rebuilt with larger motors to keep up with the PE's own Twelves, which the "Portlands" had to run with in trains, 1372-1374 recieved 4 G.E. 222-D 125 HP motors while 1375 and 1376 were given Westinghouse 557-A-6 motors, all of which operated on 600/1200 volts for service on the San Bernardino line. Other changes made were installation of standard PE pneumatic trolleys replacing the original pantographs; Westinghouse automatic couplers; Hunter illuminated destination signs; anticlimbers for spring buffers; moved roof clatter gongs to underfloor; PE-type roof bells were installed in 1937. All cars were painted with red bodies, silver roofs, dark green trucks and trolley gear.
1372-1376 ran with all the Twelves until retired in 1950 when all the PE's 1200 class were retired. All were scrapped by Kaiser Steel's Fontana plant in 1951.
These models reflect the cars after their 1942 modernization program. Combination cars did not receive the snazzy orange striping with silver bordering that the coaches wore after the remodeling.
