"image004.jpg" - image/jpeg, 214x194 (24bit)

My exposure to this car it has come a long way, since I first saw it in
Pittsburg in 1997's, tried to get Kel MacKavanagh to let us set it on the CR
main across the parking lot; to the first bum's fire; to the heiress
recovering the car moving it to Maine; to the 2nd bums fire; the raccoons
occupying the car; to our-GVT's attempts to buy it, a 2nd time, and return
it to home rails in Scranton; to many New Jersey and Pennsylvania RR
Historical societies attempts; now finally NS buying it with it 6-axel
outside swing hanger trucks for use as a Geometry Car; the peaceful end has
come!
