Here is No. 30 operating in Marietta in the 1920s. According to "West Penn
Traction", CERA # 110, c1968, page 113, ...."The Parkersburg and Marietta
city lines saw Cincinnati single-truck curved-side cars delivered in 1924,
and later supplemented with double-truck curved-siders brought over from
the Clarksburg division."
In the eBay advertisement the picture of the A.W. Maginnis drawing (June
28, 1967) of the cars indicates three (3) cars numbered 30, 31, and 32 were
in that 1924 order.
