Just got back from a trip to Ohio for my college reunion. On Sunday, we stopped at the ORM in Worthington, just north of Columbus. It runs on about 0.8 mile of the former ROW of the Columbus, Delaware & Marion interurban. I expected to see their Illinois Terminal double-ended PCC in operation, because that's what I've seen in most photos from recent years. However, it's currently OOS for brake work, IIRC. Instead, they were pulling a coach with this:





It's from the Columbus & Southern Ohio Electric. After streetcar service ended in Columbus in 1948, it did internal switching at a power plant south of Columbus into the 1950s, and ended up at the museum in 1958.
