No. 629 was built in 1937 by the Third Avenue Railway System and served Manhattan and The Bronx for nine years. In 1949 it went with 39 other New York trolleys to Vienna as postwar aid where they ran until 1966. In 1967 the Austrian Government donated it to the museum, and the journey to Connecticut included a day's exhibition in Central Park. For 3 years the car operated as 4239 in Vienna colors. In 1970 the museum repainted it inside and out, and it returned to operation as Third Avenue 829.
