I have had trouble before posting pictures.   Derrick said I should go ahead and post this as a test.   If you don't get it, well ... sorry about that.   But I am also sending it directly to the shadow.
I had my first opportunity last Sunday on the way home from the left coast to run this critter.   

For those who have not seen it, the letterboard is original.  The roof carlines are original.   The seat frames are original.   The headlight and brake light date to the 1930s rebuilding of cars to high speed equipment.   Some of the truck parts are original.   The motor casings are original but the motors have been rebuilt.  Compressor is now.   Brake piping is new.  I turned the compressor on and it pumped for a little bit and shut off unlike anything else in the barn ... it just doesn't leak.   It's a brand new car.  A brand new 1916 car.   The windows and doors were built by Pittsburgh Railways as replacement parts ... they were scavenged by the museum when Homewood Shops closed.
