Commercial truck company electric truck
In the early 1900's various companies experimented with electric vehicles, mostly with minimal success. This 5-ton electric truck provided service delivering freight between freight stations of the Pennsylvania Railroad in the Philadelphia area.
Trucks of this type were used by a variety of businesses. The design of this truck seems similar to a wagon but with the horses inside. Interesting that we still measure the power of vehicles today in horse power.

Hello I'm Rakesh Roshan and I'm from India. I was really stunned investigating your article about the significance of separating. I have everlastingly been a peruser. I have found that it has helped me a ton in my learning and care.
