Come on now Boris, there were only 666 PCC cars. There were also 4 low-floor
converted trailers, 50 low-floor motor cars from 1916, 150 from 1916-1917 in
both single and double front door configurations, 140 low-floor single end cars
designed to pull trailers, 243 city low-floor multiple unit cars, 20 interurban
low floor multiple unit cars, 115 single-end non-MU low-floor motor cars, 80
1909 High Floor cars (with originally had side rods), 50 1911 high floor cars,
50 3500s in several different platform configuration. Don't forget also the
double deck cars, the open cars, the 1902 double truck cars, all those
inherited single-truck cars, the two Birneys. Only 666 PCC cars!
And now that I've sufficiently chided you, send me your address Boris. I have
several prints of you in the U. S. that I wish to mail to you.
