10 june 2009 - Thuin (BE) – Cimetiere. The Jewel in the Crown. The fabulous Vicinal PCC tram passes Thuin cemetery. After a prototype PCC car was obtained from USA and tested on both the Bruxelles and SNCV networks, many were built in Belgium under licence, becoming the first European-style PCCs. As we know, some of these early PCCs are still running in Bruxelles, 50 years later. The SNCV batch were unusual in retaining the classic American body design. Introduced in 1949, they didn’t last long in Vicinal service and were sold to Belgrade – this one was brought back by ASVi.

I think the very first was brought here around 1947 or 1948. It was a purely American-built car. All those which followed were built here in Belgium.
