<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT SIZE=2>Now that Ed has identified 1713, the last time I saw her was probably 3-4 <BR>years ago at Worthington, the open air museum. (Both ends of their one barn <BR>are open to the elements). They had painted the car and she looked good. <BR>Don't know about the interior.
<BR>
<BR>There was some dickering about Ed's ownership with the car housed at the <BR>museum. This is a splintered group with some wanting the steam engine (4-8-0 <BR>N&W I believe) and some PRR and NW passenger equipment gone, and others <BR>wanting to concentrate on the railroad stuff. The town of Worthington <BR>doesn't hold the museum (my opinion and what I have heard) in their backyard. <BR> It is jammed
<BR>into a wedge layout with the onetime track extension north from the museum on <BR>the old CD&M right of way cut back to the end of the museum. Urban <BR>development or something. They run south along the current rr some distance <BR>on a single track.
<BR>and have a few yard tracks storing everything.
<BR>
<BR>Then I heard a Pittsburgh PCC was in Ashley, OH which is about 25 miles north <BR>of Columbus. (north of Delaware ). Have no details on what is going on or <BR>if that is 1713, but it wouldn't surprise me.
<BR>
<BR>Any info would be helpful and if complete enough I'll try and make contact <BR>and maybe get some shots for Derrick to scan for me.
