Dwight,

I have a very comprehensive and complete listing of all PRCo Revenue
Equipment on the property as of January 1, 1952. Listed are sixteen (16)
3700-series cars still available for "revenue service" at Tunnel CH and two
(2) 3800-series cars still available for "revenue service" at Charleroi CH.
There are  eleven (11) 3700-series and nine (9) 3800-series cars listed as
being in "dead storage" at Rankin CH. The chart also lists one (1)
3700-series and two (2) 3800-series cars (in addition to the previous 11
and 9 cars) as being in the process of being scrapped, also at Rankin CH.
It would have been possible that trucks were removed from one of these to
serve as "shop trucks" sometime prior to 1955.
