Is not Prc 1440 at Seashore museum in good cosmetic shape?

I am looking for information on this Norm; their web page is hosted
by Trainweb isn't it.  http://www.trainweb.org/norm/

While roots can be traced to 1965 Norm formally incorporated in
1976.  Such is one huge undertaking for volunteer individuals.
Museums founded in the 1950s did not flourish until the 1970s
and later; all this takes time.  It is a shame some equipment
is suffering.

These volunteers seem to be trying hard don't they:

Here are a couple more pictures of 1644:

 Raymond,
 PRCo/PATransit PCC 1644 is at Northern Ohio Railway Museum
 (NORM). In the
 1990s it have very little rust on it. I have attached a
 photo of it in
 2009. Note that it is rusting through. Today (2013) it has a
 "lovely" rust
 color patina all over it. Soon all the paint will disappear,
 as will the
 car, if they don't do something about the rusting.
