Summary

Description
English: American specialty car builders, Grice & Long, built at least a dozen steam motor cars of various sizes during the 1860s employing their proprietary mechanical patents. Most were for suburban or metropolitan street railway use and virtually all were designed to negotiate restrictive track curvature. All appear to have used vertical boilers and geared drives to a single power axle.
