PRCo's 1713

[Edward H. Lybarger]

1713 was never at Worthington.  That's another car and another story to
which I plead ignorance.  Ed's car is 1713, at, I guess, Ashley.

  Now that Ed has identified 1713, the last time I saw her was probably 3-4
  years ago at Worthington, the open air museum.  (Both ends of their one
barn
  are open to the elements).   They had painted the car and she looked good.
  Don't know about the interior.

  There was some dickering about Ed's ownership with the car housed at the
  museum.  This is a splintered group with some wanting the steam engine
(4-8-0
  N&W I believe) and some PRR and NW passenger equipment gone, and others
  wanting to concentrate on the railroad stuff.  The town of Worthington
  doesn't hold the museum (my opinion and what I have heard) in their
backyard.
   It is jammed
  into a wedge layout with the onetime track extension north from the museum
on
  the old CD&M right of way cut back to the end of the museum.   Urban
  development or something.  They run south along the current rr some
distance
  on a single track.
  and have a few yard tracks storing everything.

  Then I heard a Pittsburgh PCC was in Ashley, OH which is about 25 miles
north
  of Columbus.  (north of Delaware ).  Have no details on what is going on
or
  if that is 1713, but it wouldn't surprise me.

  Any info would be helpful and if complete enough I'll try and make contact
  and maybe get some shots for Derrick to scan for me.
