Late night trip to Columbia with Harry to see the progress of 26.
One day back in 2012.
I miss being able to travel!
Giving Tuesday was started in 2011 to help non-profit organizations. As most of you know, The Baltimore Streetcar Museum has not opened this year due to Covid. Even if the museum could open, Falls Road is under construction and parking is limited. While the museum is not struggling, there has also been no events to raise money this year. My fundraiser was going to raise money for United Brill car 3828. I hope you will consider making a donation. Thank you. Mailing Address: P.O. Box 4881 Baltimore, MD 21211

Friends of Philadelphia Trolleys is starting to raise money to restore Red Arrow #73 back to service at The Pennsylvania Trolley! This will be the second center door car PTM will have to operate, that means during special events they can run a 2 car train. Take a look into this project here: https://youtu.be/5CDelp1IQ9E
Come take a ride with us!

The exterior of #26 is nearly finished and ready for painting. The new headlight fixture has been installed, new metal smoothed down and primed. A test white coat of paint was applied to the windshield area to allow them to better adjust the body putty. This will allow them to have a better looking smooth fix of the new windshields. They rubber for the floor has always started being cut to be installed.

7407 got much needed maintenance today. We greased every bearing we could get to, greased brake beams, checked motors, MG, compressor and cleaned associated brush holders. Cleaned absolutely filthy compressor filter. Blew clean equipment cabinets. Repaired F3 contactor that had fallen apart and other miscellaneous work.
A little maintenance before the board meeting. These lights have not worked in many years, hopefully we can get new ones for next Christmas.
