El Paso City Lines
One of the last cities to convert to PCC was El Paso, TX. In 1950 and 1952 they purchased a group of PCCs from San Diego. This was more of a transfer since both properties, at that time, were part of National City Lines. Prior to the PCC purchase, the system had a fine collection of cars which showed the Stone & Webster influence. Cars were purchased new and imported from Houston and Fort Worth over the years.
