I was there.  Thanks for the reminder - I forget about the date.  Some of
the trolleys - especially the PCCs - stayed on Johnstown Traction Co.
property until at least the end of 1961, probably waiting for a buyer. 
Today, at least two of the double-end cars are at museums - the 350 at
the Pa. Trolley Museum near Pittsburgh, and another car at the Orbisonia,
PA trolley museum.
