The property owner owned it and once planned to make a diner out of it, but he abandoned that idea sometime ago and left it to rust. Turns out the trolley was recently dismembered:

damn! i took this picture a month ago and sent it into philebrity last night…had no idea it was gone. i always got a kick out of seeing it when i came out of the subway stop, admittedly not that often, right across the street.
