 "Troop Car" is a  generic term, applied to the various makes, models and types of vehicles  with  usually four wheels.  No written history exists as to when the term was first  use.  1917-18 is a good bet when model T's were first used. The "T" stood for,  that's right, "Troop Car".  There are exceptions to the "four wheel" rule, such  as a Brockway truck (1930's) to transport horses  (Troop Truck).  The images are in random  order. The file name /lower left corner/  contains information available to identify the vehicle.    You will see the letter "Q" used,   which means a question exists about the year or make of a vehicle.  Some images are paper  based, not as sharp as photographic material, but the  only one of a particular  make found.  This section is by no means complete, do you have a picture?  Use the contact button.  Click on an image to enlarge.
