The three motor vehicles BCe 1/2 1 to 3 of the Stansstad – Stans (StSt) tram were supplied by SIG in Neuhausen. The electrical equipment, including the 15 hp motor, came from the Companie de l'industrie eléctrique & mécanic (CIE) in Geneva. They had a wheelbase of 2.5 meters and a total length over the coupling of 7.52 meters. They had a second class compartment with six upholstered seats and a third class compartment with twelve seats on wooden benches. The open platforms on the side of the third-class compartment were lengthened by a window width, so that there were seven windows on each side. In winter, a stove could be installed between the two compartments. There was kerosene lighting.
