PRCo ran some City Charters and my Aunt took my
sister and I on one mid to latter 1950s. Bus Driver
quite personable.
Part of the tour is to go to Mt.Washington and
ride the Incline down -- bus meets people at the bottom.
Driver said he had a convention group of Black
Ladies who didn't want to take that Incline ride so he
told them it was an Observation Platform. He said
these ladies would be excellent back-up for Air Raid Siren!
