Could be a charter.

Also, according to one motorman, PRCo would put the interurbans out on 
various lines in snow as they were  *heavier*  and tracked better.       
This is what the motorman claimed when I rode one 17xx interurban on the 
42-Dormont to downtown one evening for the PRMA meeting.       Trouble 
is, according to the PCC books, the 17xx Interurbans are several hundred 
pounds lighter than their City Cousins!!!!!!!

Maybe the pilot acted like a plow!!!
