Thanks for posting.  I can’t tell you how many miles I rode on those red and cream Pittsburgh PCC’s over the years on my way to school, work, visiting relatives, going downtown, to Kennywood or to Forbes Field to see the Buccos.  However what’s that 77/54 doing in downtown Pittsburgh in the 3rd photo?  It’s normal route did not go through downtown so it must have been on a charter run in that photo.  I used to take the 77/54 from Carrick to Forbes Field.

Good one.  That looks like some sort of combine and those alternating green and white shades would be a nice touch to model.

This photo is just one example of why, from a very young age, I have always loved Traction. Such a unique style of equipment, in looks and purpose.

Agreed!  This is a great photo.  It inspired me to do a quick web search before work.  There's a lot to read and see for this transit company.

How many of you knew that San Francisco is always building new Cable Cars. One or two are always under construction or being rebuilt. MWB I think you could get a job there. Don

I would enjoy that, but I would also have to relocate to the SF area and I can't afford to do that.......
