1500-1564

The 1500 series were air cars with no standee windows, the destination sign was not split.  A large cowling surrounded the pole base and a small air intake was located forward of the cowling.  Built by St. Louis Car Co. these were similar to the 1400 and 1200 series cars.  This order was reduced from 100 cars to 65 due to WWII restrictions, the same reason you don't often see headlight wings on these cars.
