Chick Siebert worked for the state for many years ... forget now  
which agency ... might be environmental.  He built a lot of 0 gauge  
models.   Lives in Harrisburg's western suburbs ... Camp Hill, PA.  I  
think he has past his 90th birthday by now.   He grew up riding the  
Valley Railways cars in the 1930s and before that the interurbans of  
the Northwestern Pennsylvania Railway.   He claims to have ridden an  
MU train on 82 Lincoln in Pittsburgh (route cards show no MU service  
but route cards are not always correct).   He also claims to have  
ridden the Pittsburgh, Harmony Butler and New Castle.

The other man was involved, I believe, in highway engineering ... did  
several small booklets on bridges and roads in the state.

Sorry, I know I'm not Ed.
