Pittsburgh's Famous 1800s

[Fredbruhn at aol.com]

Jim - No one is picking on you.  We all take license in how we model.  Our 
readers will find the 1800 DE PCC under Fantasy Models in their 2001 listing. 
 (SPT)  And as usual it does look great.  I plan to have WP cars serving 
Trafford in 1953 on my pike.  

Dick Keegan used Dupont Automotive paints for the most part and Mary Jane's 
oven for baking the paint on most of the models he painted.  He and Ed Suydam 
were close friends.  He is still kicking in Ark. (he lived his working life 
in Hays, KS. known for nothing) and dabbles in both O and HO, model airplanes 
of his youth again, and is still ticked that Denver Tramways converted to 
bus.  He likes PRCo. like all of us and the only time I think he visited 
Pittsburgh was in the mid 60's driving a motor home.  Pittsburgh, the only 
city where you can make 4 right hand turns and end up lost was a challenge 
for the boat he was driving.  

The winged logo mentioned on Ed's trip to Worthington  is newly made.  Ed 
Miller had them made for his car and he and I corresponded back and forth for 
2 years on one of those decals and I finally gave up.  He is hard to pin 
down, believe he is quite busy.   I may try again since this has come up.

Fred
