            New Haven Railroad Brill 1927 Doodlebug 9108 gas electric car and a gas electric trailer is seen at a station during the winter, ca mid 1930's.  The horn and bell were offset from the original front mounted position, along with a standard coupler and draft gear being installed as a modification so that these gas electrics could haul trailers.  Gas Electric 9108 lasted in service into 1951 operating on the West Medway-Needham Junction run, and was the last gas electric in service, but was retired in 1952.  These gas electrics servied on most of the branch lines over the years that required passenger service and were quite good at doing so.
