No. 60 was built in 1895 by the Laconia Car Co. for the Manchester Street Railway. One of the first trolleys in New Hampshire, it has a 20 foot body and it originally had longitudinal plush upholstered seats and open platforms; vestibules were enclosed in 1899. After being withdrawn from passenger service, No. 60 was kept for use as a car to sand rails for many years and its body was acquired by Seashore in 1941, the third piece to be added to the collection.
