This fleet of 100 all-electric PCC cars was ordered in 1944 to serve Route 23. By the time the fleet arrived in early 1947, it was determined that only 85 were needed for Route 23. Fifteen were assigned elsewhere in the city.

**These 15 cars were equipped with treadle doors upon delivery in 1947, and assigned to Callowhill Depot for service on Route 42.
When treadle doors were enabled, passengers could let themselves out via the center doors, so these cars could be operated by one man without a conductor. At this time conductor's booths were not removed, so that the trolley could also serve as a two-man car if required.

All conductor's booths were removed from 2700 series cars, and treadle doors installed, during 1954 and 1955.

GOH was SEPTA's General OverHaul project:
112 postwar PCC cars were overhauled between 1979 and 1988.

Cars highlighted in black-and-white have been re-manufactured as PCC-II

Cars tinted gray were sold to Brookville Mine Equipment Corp. and have since been scrapped

Cars tinted red were destroyed in the Woodland Carbarn Fire, October 1975
