number / Miss Daisy
- Built by the Fairmont Company of Fairmont, Minnesota around the turn of the 20th Century.
- Cars of this type were widely used by railways all over the world for track inspection.
- Our speeder is powered by a 1-cylinder gasoline engine.
- Two MATA volunteers donated Miss Daisy in complete and operational condition.
- MATA crews refurbished and dressed up the speeder's appearance.
- A muffler was added to silence the unacceptably noisy engine.
- Safety lights and appliances were also added so the car could be used in city streets.
- Miss Daisy and her trailer proved to be very useful in cleaning out dirt and debris from our tracks during the reconstruction of McKinney Avenue.
