Just stumbled over this string and maybe I can help. The double enders that ran on the 04 Clayton, 02 Berkley, and 12 Maryland most closely resemble the Western Hobbycraft trolleys (I have 4 of them). But they did not run on the 21 Tower Grove. There aren't many photos out there of the 21 because of its early abandonment date, but I'm reasonably sure the Peter Witts and what I called the "box cars" 1100s and 1200s ran

on it. I don't believe the big Robertsons ran on the 21. Unfortunately the Bachman Peter Witt is modeled after the Milan Italy cars. Color is wrong for United Railways.

I am not a scale brass trolley guy, but perhaps someone out there made STLPS in brass. If so, it will cost a fortune.

Here is a photo of the MTH St. Louis PCC and the Bachman Witt running on my layout.
