Jewett Combine 202

The last of the three interurban combines. Considering the railroad's short life as a passenger interurban, it is amazing that half of its interurban cars survive. While 200 was removed from its resting place near Hatch in 1979 by members of the Bay Area Electric Railway Association, 202 still sits, awaiting either rescue or oblivion.

A pair of telegrams between R. T. Kearney and D. C. Degraff on August 17, 1934 and a letter dated August 18, 1934 from H. A. Mitchell to D. C. Degraff discuss the retirement of cars 200, 201 and 202 and the conversion of 202 into a caboose. While the telegrams indicate a plan to turn the 202 into a caboose, the letter states that on inspection the 202's condition "does not warrant holding it for use as a caboose" and recommends it should be retired with the other two. Thus, according to official documents, it appears that the three combines were never used regularly in caboose service as reported elsewhere, although it is possible they saw "unofficial" use in that capacity.
