[PRCo] Cleveland and SHRT

[Edward H. Lybarger]

It was in decent shape the last time I was there, but that was 1997.

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:

 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.
