Thank you, Mr.Long.

I am including a couple photos.  It is difficult to read the car numbers
at Elco but it "suggests" 3765.

The photo of 3769 at White Barn is the same date as the charter and
coincides with the information from Perc -- 1614, 1646, 3761, 3769
were all used on this charter.  Incidentally--this charter did go to
Washington then Shannon, Charleroi, Roscoe, then back to Washington.
I believe local revenue cars were used in Washington by some on
the charter.  Since this is a joint charter with Akron it is possible
4-cars were needed.


A third photo shows 1646 backed onto the Donora line at Black Diamond;
regular service car 4387 was used by those on the charter who wanted
to ride to Donora.

The 4th photo shows 3761 in "1952" so this may be the charter.  You
might identify individuals for us!

I need to tend to other matters. 

Phil

Here is the fot to which I referred earlier.  Still having computer =
issues but found another way to get it onto this computer so could send. =
Now if the dreaded Ecartis will let it appear, all is well.

This is a Box Brownie photo taken by an inexperienced photographer (me =
at age 13).  Sorry it is not the best quality, and for the pole in the =
front of 3761.  But it does show the features to which  I referred in a =
previous email on the subject of the =E2=80=9Cmystery photo.=E2=80=9D
