Built as a cable car trailer - apparently to a horse tram design - for the Mornington Municipal Tramway. It always ran as a trailer on the Mornington Cable Car line with one of the Mornington Grip Cars - see 103.

It was renumbered 111 when taken over by the Dunedin City Corporation Tramways (DCCT) in 1920s.
