The car was last owned by Thomas Lowry, the owner of Twin City Rapid Transit Company. It is my understanding that Lowry restored the car and displayed it around the country. After Lowry's death in 1909, I believe the car sat until it was destroyed by a fire in March 1911. Photos of the car after the fire can be seen at: [rogerjnorton.com].
