Most of the cars seen today are very different than the vehicles that once existed in the late 1800s and early 1900s. One of the more inventive vehicles created at that time was the T&F Cycle Car by T&F Cycle Car Co. of New Salem.
The company was founded by Levi Flagg and William E. Taft in 1906. Flagg always had an interest in mechanics and had started a machine shop in his father’s chicken coop, according to Donald Flye of Petersham, a former New Salem resident and member of the Swift River Valley Historical Society. Flye has always had an interest in cars, he said, since he began driving a Model T around back roads as a teenager.
