"Petunia"         
#636 was part of an order for 25 streetcars for the Dallas Railway Co. from the J. G. Brill Co. in 1920. It operated in Dallas until 1947 when it was replaced by more modern equipment. It was stripped of her wheels, motors, and electrical equipment before being sold to serve as a residence for 30 years. When the car was acquired in the 1970's it contained a bed, sink, stove, refrigerator, easy chair and blue curtains. The car was restored and donated it to MATA.
