In the years 1926-1928 the workshops constructed 12 cars equal to the Brill-28 type but with an extended saloon with eight windows at each side instead of seven. These trams seated 32.
With the CCFP these tramcars had the numbers 250-253, 256-259 and 284-287. The last four were renumbered by the STCP into 254, 255, 260 & 261. They were used on all lines except to Gaia. During the second half of the 1930‘s they were used most of the time on the lines 5 and 7.
The original GE270 motors were by the STCP replaced by more powerful Italian CGE motors which before were used with the Belgas and bogie Fumistas. Because of these motors they got the nickname Italianos.
