I do like the practicality of the roadster with the California top. Load her all up, turtle deck on top, ready for refitting once the load is delivered!

Wow, nobody is sitting on the hood for a change!
Great set of pictures thank you.
Just a 20 year old who listens to 40 year old music, works on 75 year old airplanes and drives 100 year old cars.
The past is only simple because hindsight is 20/20.

That is a VERY LARGE man in the second to last photo. And the ‘15 touring has those unusual cowl lamp fonts and unique method of securing speedo cable. But I especially liked the RR passenger cabins and the ‘auto livery’ signage transition from horse transportation to the more familiar ‘auto garage’. Thanks for the entertainment Tom !!

I love the term 'Parlor Cars' for the railroad T's, sounds real posh, specially for a T

Looking at the rear axles, the front one seems a lengthened regular T chassis, the second one a TT
When in trouble, do not fear, blame the second engineer ! 8-)

As George H mentioned above, the 15th photo of the 1915 Touring appears to have
1915 New York license plates and the unusual two-piece font side lamps often discussed.
