Motor Carriage 9888
Of this type of two-axle tram, also known as Braine-le-Comte, 159 units were built by five different Belgian manufacturers. Motor Carriage 9888 rolled out in 1932 from the Ateliers Anglo-Franco-Belge in La Croyère (La Louvière).
The tram was designed to pull heavy loads and was used in Flanders, in and around Kortrijk, and later in the early 1950s in the Ghent area. But this tram ended its career as a service vehicle for the breakdown service at the Quaregnon depot. ASVI rescued the vehicle in 1973 and restored it to its late 1930s state with a Pieper electro-hydro-pneumatic braking system.
