Central Electric Railfans Association
The Central Electric Railfans' Association (CERA) is a dedicated group that celebrates the history and technology of electric railways, particularly focusing on the unique controller used by motormen to operate electric railway vehicles. Their logo, designed by member Thomas A. Carpenter, reflects this heritage by depicting an electric interurban multiple unit car controller handle, symbolizing the essential role of the motorman in railway operations.
By exploring the evolution of railway technology from the 1890s to modern advancements, CERA emphasizes the significance of the controller, which parallels the functionality of a gas pedal in automobiles. The association provides valuable resources and events for enthusiasts, ensuring the legacy of electric railways continues to be appreciated and preserved.
