Greetings to the list:

    Approximately when did Pittsburgh Railways change from maroon to orange
paint?  Ed gave me a group of pictures to scan and one on them is of the
Pittsburgh Railways Band in front of the bandshell at Kennywood.  The single
ended car on the bass drum is a dark color in this black & white print.  I
am trying to approximate a date for the picture.  (I have some ideas, but am
testing the waters so to speak.)  I also realize they could have changed
colors on the cars, but not the drum!
    Thanks
