The Peter Witt streetcar was introduced by Cleveland Railway commissioner Peter Witt (1869–1948) who led the transit agency from 1911 to 1915 and designed a model of streetcar known by his name that was used in many North American cities, most notably in Toronto and Cleveland.
This ex-Milan car, now operating in San Francisco, carries the two-tone green color scheme used by Milan from 1926 to the 1970s.

This ex-Toronto car has been restored to its 1921 livery, and is now preserved at the Halton County Radial Railway Museum.
