Hagerstown & Frederick Car 168

Built in 1917 by the James G. Brill Company in Pennsylvania for the Hagerstown & Frederick Railway. During this year, a fire occurred in the car barn, causing damage to Car 168. So, it was replaced with this streetcar. It would travel on both mainlines and branch lines throughout Hagerstown. In 1947, this car made one final trip to Williamsport. Afterwards, Car 168 was renovated into a cabin alongside the Potomac River until a model railroad club in Hagerstown acquired it and moved it to the Hagerstown Fairgrounds. It was then donated to the Hagerstown Roundhouse Museum and is now displayed in front of the entrance.
