I just began a project to modify and restore to running condition at least 1 of 3 Industrial Rail trolley cars I have on the deadline track at the car-barn. Since there is no assembly diagrams and electronics functional information available for the Industrial Rail trolley car, I will document & share step by step what I do to disassemble and modify these cars. Attached is my project description and disassembly instructions. If anyone has some functional info to contribute, please share it in this post.

Interesting project! Wish I had your info a few years back. I have several IR trolleys, and my first broke down after a year or so, requiring the heroic efforts of the MarxMotorMan, Bob Testa, to transplant a replacement motor and/or gearing to get it running again. It has run flawlessly since then on my el line:
