Greetings!

PRCo   Trolleys   to   Gutterliners   in   the   West   End

	"HOW   WILL   PRC   EVENTUALLY   WORK   OUT   the transition from
trollies in the West End?   Perhaps you have your solution to the
problems associated with the ending of trolley operations next Spring on
the Point Bridge.   How will they use the $300,000?   The 29 buses they
will need to replace the cars will cost a lot more than that.   And how
about the cost of changes at Ingram carhouse and Island Ave. garage?"

	[ONLY   29   buses needed to fill West End Runs in 1959???]

P.E.R.C.   *Trolley   Fare*   Vol V #9,   January 1959.
