True. I wrote Carl and asked him about the East End lines. He replied the
East End may need two volumes for adequate coverage. He added, however, he
may take a break from Pittsburgh and do a tape on DC trolleys. That would be
fascinating. As it is, I still need to order my copy of his new winter tape.

He sure has mastered the art of restoring the images from deteriorated film
and improving the quality of some of the maginal stuff he sometimes has to
use. Plus the computer graphics get better with each release. And where does
he find that great "mood" music? The haunting melody he used while showing
the Overbrook line and the "night club" jazz number for the shots of Route
40 were great!
