Mark!

	This has been discussed  --  not too long ago.    Tom Phillips
has the best answers.    Have a photo or 2  --  difficult to
find.

  I'll break the silence with a question. Forgive me if this has
been brought up before.
  I have seen many old photos of the Washington and Charleroi
interurbans but, except for fantrips, I have never seen a 1600 on
the Charleroi line. Was there a reason for this?  Were there
still plenty of 3800s and 3700s around to fill the schedules?
This is something that has always perked my curiousity but I
never got around to asking.
              Thanks!
