They were orange and black.  The museum is averse to gasoline powered
devices that require licensing and insurance, let alone a place to be
stored!  We already have three streetcars off-campus at the moving company's
new warehouse next door.  But I personally agree that it's worthy.

Greetings

Not sure any more but I believe they were traction orange.  Folks at
Arden should know.

A suggestion:  Arden should restore a route foremen's truck.  Good
project for teenagers.  Didnt they also carry a spare trolley pole.
