Car No. 652 "Belga"

 

Built in the workshops of the Compañía do Carris de Ferro do Porto, this is the seconda car of the heritage fleet from Buenos Aires, belonging to the Historical Tramway of Buenos Aires, and it started their duties in this city in 1983, after an year of reconstruction and restylings. It is almost alike as it was the car No. 258, but in this case some things like the platforms, and the layout of signs, numbers and another things, belongs to a car that rode in Buenos Aires until the 40`s.

 

Original model of  "La Metalurgique", from Belgium, circa 1920. Anglo-Argentine Tramway Company (1876-1939).
