[PRCo] Re: More PRCo Trivia

[Edward H. Lybarger]

Blaine's material is presently at CERA, where it will be published as two
volumes...one on PRC and one on Port Authority.  Fred and I have reviewed
most of the PRC material; you all will find it extremely worthwhile.  It
contains material not in other histories that have been compiled.  PTM is
very supportive of Blaine's efforts, including the use of photographs from
our archive.

Blaine is a regular attendee at HTM.  If I can remember to, I will make
inquiries about the Pittsburgh project.

Ed Ridolph will soon be coming out with the first volume of a two volume set
on PRC;  however, this is just a typical Morning Star picture book. V1 will
cover North Side and East End.  A number of the pictures will be mine.

>From "Pittsburgh Railways, Vol 1" by R. L. Beal, copyright 2002. Too bad
Vols 2 and 3 were never published. It's a more "inexpensive" printing job,
however, it is the only thing available and probably will be the only thing
ever available pertaining to a history of PRCo. Blaine Hays was supposed to
come out with a history of PRCo, however, it looks like he has been
"silenced" inasmuch as nothing has been voiced about its' publication for
two or more years now.
I am picking some items out of this book and will post them on The List in
the near future.
