EDMONTON TRANSIT SYSTEM
1944 Pullman 44-CX #113-120

After Mack stopped producing trolley coaches, by order of the US Department of National Defense, Edmonton decided to try Pullman for trolley coaches. The order was placed in August 1943, and the buses arrived in July 1944. All of these buses were retired between 1964, and 1966 when the used Regina CCF/Brill's arrived that killed off any Pullman's still around then. #116 was kept for the historic collection, and was renumbered to 113. These buses were powered by a General Electric 1213D7 140 HP motor.
