It will be available for viewing once it's inside the new blimp hangar this
summer.  All the tarps will be removed prior to moving the cars, I'm told.
The public will be admitted to this building, too, though not as regularly
as the members!

I think everything should be put out on display, regardless of visual or
operating condition.  Maybe they have to be behind curtains to shield them
from the general public, but I suspect a lot of you, like me, look at a
disintegrating hulk of a streetcar body the same way art historians look at
a broken up Greek statue.  I haven't seen 739 WP car since it was moved out
of the barn and put under tarp, and I'd hate to wait until it gets a new
paint job.
