Quoted from website:<br>
<br>
Emsworth PA: View a street in Emsworth where Railway Express<br>
wanted to lease the building on the right to store and service<br>
trolley cars. The assignment was for the law firm of Reed,<br>
Smith, Shaw and McClay who was representing Railway Express in<br>
trying to get the local zoning law changed - 1951<br>
<br>
Did labels for pictures get shuffled? REA 'service' TrolleyCars? This<br>
seems like a Solution chasing a non-existent problem. What kind of<br>
service -- pull in and out for a quick gas and lube?<br>
<br>
Whose TrolleyCars? The handwriting was already visible -- PRCo<br>
ridership was dropping. PRCo coming out of bankruptcy was BROKE. They<br>
did not have money to purchase maintenance contracts. TrolleyCars across<br>
the country were disappearing fast.<br>
<br>
MUCH more info needed; this does not make sense. Maybe it is the hour.<br>
