[PRCo] Re: P&AV 51

[Edward H. Lybarger]

This is another photo on a card owned by Nathan.  The 51 Dennis is speaking
about was a single-truck car.  The 51 shown in Apollo is not a Pullman
product, and is clearly a double truck car.  I think it is what later was
renumbered 607 (Jewett), 608 or 609 (the latter two Niles), and I lean to
607.  The window sash is different from 609, which was supposedly the twin
of 608.

Another anomaly has reared its head.  Car 51 was supposedly built by Pullman
and sent to Kittanning.  Here it is on the P&AV in front of the Eagles
(former Elk's) Club in Apollo.
Simple transfers were not possible considering there was a difference of 6' 
in gauge between the 2 lines.
