Jim Holland mentioned that there was a car house standard for car
numbers (I won't attempt to repeat his conjecture since he admitedly was
hard pressed to follow the reasoning <grin>).

However, in the course of those comments, he mentioned that cars might
have been re-housed as car houses closed. Is there a record of PRCo car
houses (built, abandoned, destroyed, etc.)? Is there even just a list
(name, location)?

My childhood (rug rat to yard ape years) was spent in a house on
Frankstown Avenue within sight (I think) of that car barn (as my great
uncle used to call it).
