I also have needled Jim about a low floor car and maybe this is a small snowball starting. Jim has said he wants to do 1600 next, which is probably 2002, but lets keep the friendly presssure on him. As a Pittsburgh native and PRCo. fan he owes it to us, don't you agree? We don't want all those colorful ex SEPTA PCC's running around SF interferring with his TT to cloud his thinking. Fred Bruhn ]
