I found a bunch of Pittsburgh shots I acquired some time ago. I believe
some are from the Joe Diaz collection, though none are stamped with a
photographer's name or copyright information. Some are Pittsburgh
Railways company photos.

If any of you wish to see the images, e-mail me privately for the scans.
Here are the captions from the backs of the prints:

aa2: 4936 in car wash

fan at PTM torching the 3756 so he can make room for the 4000 car stored
at South Hills Village)*

* My own attempt at cynicism. For now, I will restrict all my future PTM
donations to the Miller Library and the Power and Signals Department.
May all the Museum's PCCs rust away! :-)
