[PRCo] Re: North Coast Rail News

[Ken and Tracie]

Hi Herb,

As long as we're on the subject of "West Pittsburgh"and snow, do you know 
the final disposition of the former Milwaukee Electric sweeper(s) which were 
sold to Cleveland? I seem to recall they/it were/was used as work car(s) on 
the rapid transit.
