Westbound Kenosha electric streetcar. Kenosha Wisconsin USA. January 2001.

Kenosha Wisconsin electric streetcar. Kenosha Wisconsin. January 2001.

I was passing through downtown Kenosha Wisconsin one very sunny , but bitterly cold January afternoon in 2001. With an outside temperature of 5 degrees above zero Farenheight and a sharp east wind blowing off of nearby Lake Michigan, I photographed the red 1951 vintage ex Toronto Transit Commision PCC electric streetcar heading westbound on 54th Street. Kenosha Wisconsin had recently experienced heavy lake effect snow accumulations, as evidenced by the tall snowbanks along side the electric streetcar lines private right of way.
