This is not a cable car. There are no rails and there is no slot for the cable hook and it seems to have rubber wheels. I see no overhead wires or third rail. Its a motor tour bus of some sort.

Hmm yeah it looks like they took a cable car body and put it on a truck chassis.

I know they did that in Providence, RI and I think Boston, after they removed the rail lines so you still can see cable cars driving around.

I knew that those cities had electric trolleys at one time but I didn't know they had cable cars.

Yeah, this is like the custom Cadillac limos that mrcadillac keeps talking about.

Well, less custom than the Cadillac, as here we do not have any visible part from the original vehicle :p

A little different - this one probably didn't start out as a recognizable car and probably doesn't have a VIN.

Make a category for tour vehicles. I think the car is a Grumman.

Custom made ? as I don't think anyone builds this in a series

it's an electric tourist shuttle made to look like a trolley
