Greetings!

PERC   PRCo   Fan   Trip

	"Colorful car 1461, painted   'COUNTY   FAIR'   will be used.  
Normally used only on the short 22-Crosstown line, it will be a rare
pleasure to use one of these gaily-colored cars on   BOTH   INTERURBAN  
LINES,   plus city routes 10, 13, 15, 18, 19, 38, 38A, 42, 44, 47, and
53.   Lots of private right-of-way, high trestles, single track, and new
cross-over track-work at Shannon and West View.   And we'll try a left
turn again at 18th and Sarah where (on a previous expedition) we
derailed 3487.   Trip will leave Manchester barn (take rt. 18 or 19
cars) at 8.30-AM EDT.   Lunch stop in Allentown.   Trip will last about
9-hours.   Fare $4.00 on the car.   Free transfers and ozone.'
