Turns out a picture of yours truly working on Friday was posted by  
the webmaster to the Pennslvania Trolley Museum's web site over the  
weekend.

You can either click through the entire web site, or just click on  
the last of the three links.

By the way, working with Santa is a slow way to accumulate miles.   I  
figure in three days I only accumulated 24 miles as a conductor and  
24 miles as a motorman.   Since it was all on a Red Arrow car, let's  
equate it to their system ... it is equivalent to a trip from the  
barn at Llanerch to 69th St., a round trip to West Chester, and back  
to the carbarn and it only took three days to do it!    But we hauled  
more than 800 people.

Charlie Fife, our president played Santa.   Here is a whole series of  
him as Santa that appears in the Washington PA newspaper.   I see I'm  
also in one of them.
