Don't remember this distinction being made. It was stated
that these 3-cars (1547, 1674, 1675) were pulled from the
production line for PRCo -- nada said about taking the car from
PRCo. All I have ever seen just relate this as part of
historical happenings!:->) After all, it was clearly
identified in the first postings that these cars were eventually
replaced and shipped to PRCo.
Cox, Lind, DeMoro, and your books all state the above -- never
heard anyone make the distinction that the cars were stolen from
PRCo until you wrote the above statement. Maybe you are
reading something into it that isn't there.
