The late Ed Wilson (many of his photos were used in CERA B-112) was a TMER&L Co. city
motorman before transfering to the interurban division. He kept noticing a certain
young woman who boarded his car everyday. When he asked the conductor about her, the
conductor replied, "That's my sister!" Ed claimed it was easy from that point on. They
were married until Ed passed away almost sixty years later.   Ken J.
