Greetings

Speaking of coffee tables.  The President of the P&LE in the 1960's (Allen I
believe) had the clock from the Smithfield Bridge trolley as a coffee table
in either his office or home.  Wonder where it is?
Did he have a standard or daylight time sign?

Ed: Do you have any information?  Would be nice for the Arden Visitor's
Center.
