From pg.043 of An__American__Original -- The__PCC__Car, the author
writes:::::::

"""The first assembly line car, Brooklyn & Queens 1001, was delivered to
Brooklyn with certain laboratory-built equipment, so testing would not
be delayed. The car arrived... on May_28,_1936..."""
.
"""...Westinghouse Electric arranged to have its controls and motors
installed on a Brooklyn carbody. This car, to become Pittsburgh
Railways 100, was the second production car from the St.Louis production
line."""
