<<  I need some help y'all.  This is in regards to 1711 when it was painted 
 orange/white/orange by PAT.  1) Did it have dash lights at this time?  2) 
Did 
 it have the headlight "wings"?   3) Which side of the car was the giant PAT 
 logo located? I noticed some pix of the mod cars had it on the left and some 
 on the right.           This is very important as I am ordering a SPTC  1700 
 series car. SPTC asked these questions but I have no clue.  I have the 
 original 1711 and the gray#2 1711. Very much want the whole cycle. While 
 we're on this subject, was the orange/white/orange the last paint scheme 
that 
 1711 had. I have a color list of all the 1700's and it lists the o/w/o on 
 1711 though 1986. Now in the PTM booklet, it states that 1711 was retired 
 from service in Aug. 1988 and acquired by PTM in 1990. What color scheme was 
 it when PTM acquired it?  I would appreciate all comments by those of you 
who 
 are very knowledgeable about PTM's 1711. Thanks a bunch!

         Never mind the last part of my previous questuion. I got my answer 
from Bruce Wells of PTM. The first 3 questions, however, I still need 
answered. I e-mailed Bruce the same 3 questions. Am still awaiting a reply. 
Are there any pictures out there of 1711 in the mod orange/white/orange?  
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!  Thanks in advance.
