Two of these cars, 844 and 889, are preserved at the Western Railway Museum in California. When the Ninth Avenue El was closed in 1940 a large number of the open platform gate cars were put into storage. When WWII started about 80 of these cars were shipped to California. Most were used on the Shipyard Railway which ran from Oakland to the Kaiser Shipyards in Richmond. The railroad was owned by the U.S. Maritime Commission, but was built and operated by the Key System. Two of the Shipyard Railway cars still exist at WRM. The are now SRy 561 and 563. A picture of them can be seen at http://www.rypn.org/forums/vie...amp;p=224414#p224414
