Hi Bob,

1963. To tie this in with this list's subject matter, some Illinois
Railway Museum members went to a Western Pennsylvania truck and bus
salvage yard to obtain some parts for a vintage Chicago motor coach.
They discovered a group of Cleveland trolley coaches in the yard!

BTW, I'm sure Richard DeArmond would like some copies of those Superior
Avenue pix for his trolley coach web site. Please e-mail me privately if
you can help. Thanks!
