[PRCo] Re: PCC 1720 derailment

Hello Ken! Happy New Year to you too!  I heard that tha Drake line was going 
to be used as a training and/or maintanance line. It makes me wonder though 
if double tracking a 1.2 mile line would be feasible. How many people were 
using the line before it was "temporarily" abandoned? Don't get me wrong!  I 
am a Drake fan through and through as you know Ken. I'm just wondering if it 
would be worth the millions of dollars to rebuild it to lightrail standards. 
I'm sure in the backs of their minds', PAT is thinking the same thing. I hope 
it happens as I am also fantisizing that someone designs a new lightrail car 
that looks like our old friend the PCC. As I would love to take a ride on the 
new Overbrook line on a new modern PCC car. Here's to wishes coming true in 
2002!
