Mr. and Mrs. Willie Kay in 1906. Before the Model-T brought affordable autos to the masses, motorcycles, and the many variations thereof, were a less expensive alternative. The Indian Motocycle Company offered the Tri-Car, a three-wheeler that placed the passenger right up front. That seat on the front is pretty heavy duty, curled foot piece and fullsides, art deco-ish Found on http://www.atomicantiques.com/2010/05/21/indian-tri-car

1906 Indian Tricar, sometimes the victorian (rubenesque) biker chicks make a 3rd wheel necessary (not really, but funny)

The coolest thing we'll see all week, an Indian motorcycle from the 1910's or 20's made into a railroad service car
http://www.flickr.com/photos/reweston-sat/2314428681/ for the original photo posted by Earl G Weston, who commented "This was my Grandfather's transportation when he was a telegraph operator on The Texas & Pacific Railway near Marshall, Texas in the early 20s"via: http://megamoto.tumblr.com/
