A specially designed police car in the Holland Tunnel, NY.

Patrolmen who regulate the flow of traffic through the Holland Tunnel recently tested a miniature electric car that rolls along the tunnel’s “catwalk”. The car is designed to give the officers greater control over traffic by permitting them to cover tunnel posts faster. It was tested on a 2200-foot run of miniature railroad track. Only two feet wide, the 1300 pound car can be driven in either direction from a swivel seat inside the glass-enclosed cab. Push buttons control the speed at six or twelve miles per hour. A 240-volt, three-horse-power motor powers the car.
