IR&T - Interurban Railway & Terminal Company
0027_IRTEastern8Mile1
Historic photo of an IR&T car at Old Kellogg and Eight Mile. This IR&T Eastern division car has stopped at the foot of Eight Mile Road and Kellogg Avenue in 1903. The man with the fuzzy beard standing on the steps is identified as the photographer, who rigged the camera to automatically take the picture while the car stopped in front of his house. The oval window on the car is for the lavatory, which had a sign on the door that read, "Passengers will please refrain from using the toilet while car is standing at the Station." From the Earl Clark collection.
