Oh my...................you mentioned the "C" word on The List.
   
  However, as long as you mentioned it and inasmuch as I am employed by Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (GCRTA) I must spread the good news. Today William W. Millar, president of the American Public Transit Association (APTA), and former Executive Director of PATransit, announced that GCRTA has been selected by APTA as the BEST large city transit authority on the North American continent. Now if we would only get a pay raise for helping get this honor...............
   
  The first link in your email is Part 1 of a several part film which is shown in one of the 'subway theaters' during the Subway/Bridge Tours here. You will remember that PATransit PCC 4004 is now on display at the Detroit-Superior Bridge/Cuyahoga County Engineer Office at the west end of the bridge.

  This has some nice Cleveland scenes of trolleys on the Detroit - 
Superior High Level Bridge, probably in the 1940s.
