O'CONNOR 25 YEARS ON THE FRONT DECK
Popular Molornin Quarter Gen.
 tury in NsW Britain Service

John II. o'eonnor Of sas South
 Main street. the oldest motorman iI
 years of service employed by the New
 Britain division of the Connecticut company. has completed his ssth year
 of service as motorman on the
 street ears Of this city.
 Mir. o'conner has been employed by
 the Connecticut company since 1t ae-
 quired the New Britain trolley lines
 some years ago. but previous 10 that time was employed by the private
 concerns which operated troileys in
 New Britain.
 When he first began to work on the
 trolleys the motormen and conductors
 were obliged to stand in vestibules
 which were not enclosed. it was nec- essary for both the men to wear heavy fur coats in the winter in order to keep warm.
 Although the ears were operated by electricity there were no electric heaters within the troileys to keep tho passengers warm such as there arc today. There were small stoves In tho center Of the car heated by burning either coal or wood and it was neces- sary for the conductors to keep the fires burning.
 With the exception Of the Hartford route the cars on all other lines in those days were about the size of tho cars now operated on the East Main and Chestnut street lines. They served the people in Berlin. Plainville. East Main street. Chestnut street and Hart ford. There were no cars running to Pennington avenue or to Beividere. "Motormen in those day had to be more cautious when operating their cars at night than they do today" Mir. O'Connor said 'inosmuch as there were no arc lights to throw rays sev- eral feet ahead Of the car to show the motorman whether or not he had a clear road. The small ordinary bulbs were used"
 A few years,after Mir. O'Connor en- | tered the employ of the street rail- way company side doors were placed In the vestibules of the cars and later the type of car such as is operated on the Chestnut street line, was brought to New Britain. In the summer time open cars were operated on all lines even to Hartford. Open cars have practically been done away with since the installation of the one man cars ,n most of the city lines and the new system of paying fares on the Hart ord line.
 It is an interesting fact to note that ,5 years ago when the population of New Britain was much smaller than what it is now the cars were operated ,n the 20 minute schedule on the East lain and Chestnut street lines the anne as they are today. The Berlin rolleys ran through. to Plainville but he trips were not made as frequently .s they are at present
 Mir. O'Connor believes that in pro- ortion to the growth of the city the people of today ride on the trolleys Us often as they did 25 years ago. The ervice at that time. however, was not s quick and dependable as at pres- nt.
 John and Michael Igoe are the only wo other employees of the company rho have been in service for longer eriod than MT. O'Connor. They are onductors operating on the Meriden inc while MT. O'Connor is operating car on the Hartford line.
