Hi Bill!


Please Bear in Mind that I am a Dyed In The Wool PRCo fan, and PRCo PCCs 
at that  --  but these  ARE  my  All--Time--Favorite  PCCs  --  the ones 
in traditional paint  --  not the ones where some cross-eyed character 
painted the doors:::::::

The Boston Picture Window PCCs are a very close second    ----    they 
still retain the traditional North American PCC profile with larger 
windows and a nice layback to the front window.       The cars look 
quite good for Pullmans and not as boxy as their sisters!
