Thank You, Bill!!
The PA Trolleys In Color Vol-3 by Volkmer, pg.49, shows a Horner
destination on 413 heading to Roxbury at Southmont Jct, last day of
service. But 413 is facing a left turn point and Southmont would
be a right turn -- the other PCC is identified as 498!!!!!!! ---
probably 408.
Same pg. shows 407 with Southmont displayed and the car is backing onto
the line. Pg.58 shows 405 signed for Benscreek on Ferndale line
outbound of Stony creek trestle. Pg.59 shows a carbarn shot on
1959.07.17 with 417 displaying Southmont, 403 displaying Horner St., and
404 displaying Benscreek.
