Description: Fort Smith streetcar No. 224, a "Birney Safety Car" built in 1926 for Fort Smith, Arkansas, is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). It operates at the Fort Smith Trolley Museum. It is pictured stopped along the south side of Garland Avenue just west of 6th Street, in front of the entrance to the Fort Smith National Cemetery (out of view, to the right), about to depart. This was the trolley line's east end from 1994 until 2005, when the line was extended a short distance east, across 6th Street, to a terminus between 6th and 7th streets. (Note: The street immediately next to the streetcar in this photograph, Garland Ave., has been realigned slightly since the photo was taken, and there is now a brick-paved boarding area and also a sidewalk between the track and the street.)
