Is this at the museum?

[Harold Geissenheimer]

Greetings

The Railways to Yesterday museum regauged
their SEPTA PCC #2742 to standard gauge
with their own forces.  Quite a task.

On the other hand, Kenosha will use Ex-CTA
trucks on their Toronto PCC's.

Railways to Yesterday has acquired the body
of ex-Scranton Master Unit #505 for restoration.
Its similar I guess to Altoona.

Best wishes to all.
