Uptown Dallas Today
The Stone and Webster is an American engineering services company. They are located in Stoughton, Massachusetts. They operated the Dallas Streetcar system in the early 20th century. During the peak of the Dallas Streetcar system there were 226 miles of Interurban and Streetcars operating in the North Texas region.
Today Stone and Webster are operating in the MATA trolley barn. Which is located at 3153 Oak Grove Ave. Stone and Webster are volunteers at the trolley barn and have been since their 4th of July birth. They are identical twins and the only way you can tell them apart is by the color of the collar they wear. Stone wears a blue collar and Webster wears a purple collar. Why the collars ? Well Stone and Webster are the trolley barn cats. Check out the photos on MATA.org web-page. They are great cats and welcome visitors to the trolley barn on a daily basis . Unless of course it is nap time. Next time you are riding the MATA rails stop by and visit.
They are always looking for a few good human volunteers,too. The cat positions are full at this time.
