Good info.
Yeah, this one apparently ran ...Thanks. Good info.<br /><br />Yeah, this one apparently ran through Philly back in the day... late '40s and '50s I believe. They're supposed to refurbish it... paint it and electrify it, then allow folks to walk through it. Someday, perhaps.<br /><br />Happy New Year, dude.michael kircherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826809480622154395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2515045338923631990.post-17703603055745367002010-01-01T11:36:28.005-05:002010-01-01T11:36:28.005-05:00Very cool stuff... Some interesting information, I...Very cool stuff... Some interesting information, I hope you don't mind. <br /><br />Although not an original DC/Capital Transit car and certianly not the right color scheme, the trolley car at Glenn Echo today is the right style. Very few DC Transit cars still exist many living at the National Capital Trolley Museum out in Coleville, Md. The museum has quite a representative number of cars from just about every era of the system. The Smithsonian has one of the original cars and there's one of the style at Glenn Echo down in the Virginia Museum of Transportation in Roanoke, VA. Last time I saw that car it was outside exposed to the elements.Rob Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01022020317530728678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2515045338923631990.post-7522030507491994242009-12-31T08:50:29.216-05:002009-12-31T08:50:29.216-05:00Sounds cool.

One of the advantages to having complete access to the historical archives I would guess!<br /><br />Cheers Mike! <br /><br />-JeremyJeremy Wade Shockleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11179499114264365771noreply@blogger.com
