The shot of 1614 on the Thompsonville trestle was taken on a Pittsburgh 
Electric Railway Club (ancestor of Pa. Tram Museum) enthusiasts' tour in 
July 1952.  I was on the trip.  It started at Washington, went to Castle 
Shannon, then to Charleroi (side trip to Donora), back to Castle Shannon and 
return to Washington.  Was a second car, 1646 or 47 as I recall, for Akron 
RR Club members.  I have exact dates and cars (and photos) at home.  Great 
trip!
