	Not far, Fred!  Should be hearing something early in September!  You
have been a right patient sport - Thanks!  Interesting - the prototype
1777 was delivered to PRCo on 1949.04.18 and was in service on
1949.04.22 while 1786 was delivered 1949.04.27 and in service
1949.05.02.

	Cars 1798 and 1799 were delivered 1949.05.23 and 1949.05.31
respectively  --  but they didn't go into service until 1949.07.27, two
months later!
