Picture 79.5.

A typical scene somewhere on Canal Street.  The double truck car at the far left is one of the Brill semiconvertibles, identifiable by its window configuration, possibly operating on the Coliseum line.  The date is probably some time between 1906 (when the Brill semis were built) and 1910.  All the other cars in this view are various single truck cars.  Unfortunately, none of the car numbers or route signs are readable.  There is a streetcar man at the far left of the photo who appears to be operating a track switch.  Note the wagon in the center of the photo, with an umbrella to give the driver some shade from the hot New Orleans sun.
