I wish it were ready for service. It would be nice to have a pre-war
Pittsburgh PCC in service at PTM, especially during the heat of summer.  I'll settle for a double-end low floor car though. ;>)
Can't wait to see the finished product.

An open apology to Boris:

Boris:

You asked when the trolley pole was on 1138 and I quipped "sometime  
in 1937."   I didn't recall that anything had been done to get the  
car ready for service.   And for the most part, it is still sitting  
in service bay of the new "Trolley Display Building" in the same  
condition that it was in when it came back from Elmira.   But the  
pole is on it.   I asked the guy who put it back on and he does not  
remember when he put it back on.   "Sometime in the winter of  
2001-2002 or maybe 2002-2003."

But the car is no way ready for service.
