Battery Car No.3  Holtsville Station c.1913

The Holtsville depot with the end columns burned in 1914 and was replaced with another depot without columns.  As the columns are still visible on this depot and the trolley was constructed to Holtsville in 1912, the photo has to be taken between 1912 and the fire of 1914 . . . hence my c. 1913 date.
