The Milwaukee Electric Ry. & Transport Co.

 

2nd 1101-1110

The Milwaukee Northern Ry came under TM control and 1923 and was officially merged on April 30, 1928. Under TM management 4 of their cars were rebuilt in a fashion similar to the other TM rebuilt interurbans. After 1928, most of the cars were further rebuilt and renumbered to replace the original 1100s which had been renumbered when they were rebuilt.

1101 was to have been rebuilt from MN 20, but it became 1105 instead. Thus there was no 1101.

1102 was built by Niles in 1907 as MN 21. It was rebuilt in 1930 as a double end car to be used on the Rapid Transit line to replace the 600s which were being used at that time. It was retired in 1946 and scrapped in 1948.

1103 was built by Niles in 1907 as Goshen South Bend & Chicago 401. This line was known as the Chicago-New York Air Line. It became Gary & Interurban 401 and was sold to the Milwaukee Northern in 1920 and rebuilt as 51. In 1930 it was rebuilt as TM 1103 for used on the Rapid Transit. It was repainted in 1943, retired in 1947, and scrapped in 1948. It was the last wood interurban to operate in regular service in Wisconsin.
