[PRCo] Re: whats in a name

[Edward H. Lybarger]

This is how the Washington Observer-Reporter refers to us.  And it sounds
good.  They also speak of the Washington County Fairgrounds at Arden.  But
one of the things we learned was that the name Arden meant nothing to the
public outside of the Washington area, and even there, only the older
residents really understood it.  And as I say, even the name has now moved a
mile up Fergus Run to the little town previously known as Arden Mines.  We
used to get mail addressed to the "Art and Trolley Museum!"

Greetings to all

I agee with the need to project a positive image for the future.

I like Pennsyvania Trolley Museum at Arden.

Worse yet...I still call the club the Pittsburgh Electric Railway Club
(PERC)
I never favored changing the name in the first place in the early days
