Description

Cleveland was a dynamic leader in many areas at the start of the 20th Century. One such pace-setting sector was its street railway system whose lines crisscrossed the city. Perhaps its most significant contribution to public transportation came in 1915 with the invention of the Car Rider s Car, designed by Cleveland Street Railway Commissioner Peter Witt.
