[PRCo] I Meant "Wye"

[Ken & Tracie]

No loop at Dormont. It was a wye.
Sorry about that. Also, am thinking a couple of 1600s may have been running 
in 1986-87, renumbered as 1700s, of course. ;-)

Also, the two "flat front"  1600s I know of were 1779 and 1781, not 1976. I 
believe at least one, if not both, were 1600 interurbans:

1781 was damaged and sitting on the former Route 40 right of way when I 
photgraphed it during December, 1976. You can see it was one of the cars 
which was tried out as a double ender. I was surprised to find 1669 still in 
Pittsburgh Railways color at that late date. By the time I returned in 1979, 
former 1613 was redone as 1799, in Pittsburgh Railways red and white. I do 
not know if any other 1600s lasted in Pittsburgh Railways colors during the 
entire three years. I know 1713 was repainted to Pittsburgh Railways colors 
before being repainted "T" white, black and gold.

Was there a third "flat front" car renumbered as 1976? Or was that something 
incorrect I read somewhere? Probably just my failing memory.
