The July 1952 issue of *ERA Headlights* which details the PRCo
interurban lines mentions that Little Washington was quite independent
even though a part of PRCo. They issued their own transfers and
established their own tarif. But the Car Stop signs appear to be
identical to the rest of the PRCo system - Volks book shows a
rectangular *First Car* sign.
