Greetings!
Forgot to mention that there were several different builders according to the records that I have. The
3750-3769 series was built by Osgood-Bradley. Pressed Steel, Standard Car, and St. Louis are also listed as
builders.
Car 3756 is preserved at the PTM in Little Washington and was on loan to Pittsburgh in the photos below
for the Bi-Centennial celebrations.
