Allentown & Reading Traction Co.
The Allentown & Kutztown built a standard gauge line between those two cities in 1902. That same year it leased a broad gauge line from Kutztown to Reading and changed its name to A&RT. Due to the gauge difference, passengers had to change cars in Kutztown. In 1929, the standard gauge division was cut back to East Texas, near Allentown, and the connection was broken. In 1930, the broad gauge division was abandoned, and in 1934, the remaining standard gauge trackage was abandoned.
33 was built by Brill in 1902 for the broad gauge line.
