B--I--G discussion about this *-Here-* and Dave Hamley had
article in Trolley Fare roundly trouncing PTM for not getting M0011
(PCC 100.) M0011 was on property well into the 1960s!!!!!!!
Railfans of the 1940s--1950s thought PCCs were buses and didn't want
anything to do with them! I Personally Distinctly Remember That!

Since PERC moved its first 3-cars to the museum site on 19540207, I
have often wondered why a Brill 3700 wasn't picked up -- scrap price!
