832 was trucked to Charleroi, then ran to Ingram in May of 1953 before
Charleroi closed. From there it came to the museum site.

Hello all,
Attached is a photo of West Penn 832 being trucked.   This photo is from the
Historic Pittsburgh website.   The description states:
Title: West Penn Railways 832 III
Date: November 29, 1952
Creator: Fairbanks Jr., Frank B.
Description: Moving to Charleroi barn, Pittsburgh Railways.
Subjects: Transportation--Pennsylvania--Pittsburgh,
West Penn Railways.
Identifier: 411-832-03-9
Collection: Frank B. Fairbanks Rail Transportation Archive, Pittsburgh
History & Landmarks Foundation<http://images.library.pitt.edu/f/fairbanks>

Is this accurate?  I thought that 832 went to Ingram Car House, and then
moved out under its own power to Arden.

Matt
