George Elwood has uploaded more of my trolley slides to the Fallen Flags
website.  These can be found in the "New" sections for April 11. Click on

<http://www.dnaco.net/~gelwood/new09-15apr.html>, then scroll down to the
"April 11" heading which starts off with some American Freedom Train
("AFT") photos, then "A series of light rail photos."

The "New" list includes PRC and PAT, including Fineview, and some other
systems.  A few observations:

- Don't be surprised by the photo of JTC 305.  It's a bad scan that will
be re-done (this PCC was really orange, and was NOT painted magenta).

- The long shot of 1678 on Fineview with downtown in the background was
taken from the Channel 11 studio parking lot.  The large cables in the
left side of the view support the transmitter tower.

- The shot of Toronto PCC 4674 was one in a series of photos I took
thanks to a very cooperative TTC motoroman.  After moving the car several
times for my camera, he asked me to take a photo of him welcoming riders
to his car.  I sent him a print of this photo.

- Regarding the American Freedom Train photos - last week I received an
e-mail from a man in Atlanta who viewed the photos and recognized himself
in one of the pictures I took in Pittsburgh 24 years ago!
