Greetings!

	Very interesting, Bob; I can see this was alot of work and it is very
much appreciated.

	Look closely at the background in this photo and you can see that the
back track behind the admin building *does* connect to both tracks
leading to Warrington - http://www.voicenet.com/~shawncd/SHJ/cr3700.htm
- look right in front of the low floor car there.

	Bob:  Another detail: in this photo, notice the two traffic signals
just to the left (from our vantage point) of the car
http://www.voicenet.com/~dietrich/SHJ/bv13.jpg.  I had noticed these, or
one of these, before - am *guessing* it was to control traffic from the
interurban or from 38-39-40-42 lines inbound and to allow OB cars to the
interurbans to pass!

	http://davesrailpix.railfan.net/pitts/jpg/pitt568.jpg possibly inbound
on Centre at Liberty???

	Car 1630 http://www.voicenet.com/~shawncd/SHJ/JH1781.JPG was never
accepted by ({[pat]}), was never run by ({[pat]}), and was never
converted to a double ender.  Additionally, 1630 was not an interurban.

	This photo http://www.voicenet.com/~shawncd/SHJ/cr1000.htm hints at a
dark color, possibly black, for the canvas portion of the roof only.
