A long time ago, "Trolley Talk" featured the Oley Valley Ry's long Brill
combines.  Classics.

Interesting photo.  The Oley Valley line in Berks Co. (that's also near 
Wilkinsburg) had seven similar Brill-built cars.  For those not successful 
in bidding on this Northern Electric photo, it is still possible to take 
photographs of the two Oley Valley cars (302 and 307) which still exist (as 
of last month) in Berks County.
