OK Rufus, this is for you!
Judy and I spent a wonderful couple of hours at the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum today in Washington, PA. We rode the trolley (#32 "Stella") from the admissions building to the display building and then got a terrific guided tour from a very knowledgeable docent. I took a bunch of photos. Here are a select few.
Nice generic drawing of the inner workings of a trolley car.
In the center of the photo is Hummelstown, PA. We used to live there! I was very surprised to see that picture.
Some 'splainin' for us trolley-deficient knuckle-draggers.
This is a horse-drawn car.
My better half.

This looks like something Rufus has built!

Thanks!
Nice photo of that differential dump car -- I do really need to make a pilgrimage there.

Conservatism: The intense fear that somewhere, somehow, someone you think is inferior is being treated as your equal.
