Number 601 was originally built for the streetcar lines of New Bedford, Massachusetts. It was later purchased for use in New York City on the Queensboro Bridge. It was the last streetcar to operate in regular passenger service in New York State until Buffalo started Light Rail service in 1985.
Car 601 was sold in early 2009 and the car was dismantled. Parts were split between the Electric City Trolley Museum and the Shore Line Trolley Museum.
