Why wouldn't that be called a Jitney? Pretty sure a Depot Hack was intended to move luggage and passengers from the train depots up to the hotels. Not sure that has a place for luggage, does it. Maybe I am wrong??

Who did the writeup on this a few years ago? It was pretty good,with quite a few pictures showing the two rows of seats on the sides.That really is a jitney (bus).That would haul people from the train depot,and the depot hack would haul their luggage,and maybe a couple of people.If I remember right that one was intended to be a tour bus for showing people around a site.

Three pictures at the link from 7-2021. The car was "signed" by MTM. Apparently an Ebay listing at that time - now not found on Ebay.
Very unique. Might have been used by a "vacation hotel" or similar accommodation in the 1930s. The "Stanley Hotel" in Colorado comes to mind.
