Title	Cherrelyn horsecar
Summary	The Cherrelyn horsecar (streetcar) carried passengers between the intersection of South Broadway and Hampden in Englewood, Colorado, and the small community of Cherrelyn between 1894 and 1910. The route was one and one-half miles long; a horse pulled the car one way, and then climbed on the car and rode downhill on the return trip. The car is weathered, with "Cherrelyn" faintly visible on its side; it has canopies on either end, and clerestory windows on the roof. A horse, possibly Old Dick, the last horse to pull the car, stands on the end platform, and a man in a high collar sits like a passenger in the windowless car.
