Now you must let the LION know what is happening with those trolleys with the Christmas lights on them. These are 110v light chains. Do these PCC cars have 110v power. They collect 600 v dc from the wire. The room lights are what 30 volts in series?ROAR |

A lot of Philly trolleys have 110v outlets in them,what prompted SEPTA to do this, I don't know. Sure comes in handy for the Christmas lights.I'm a dummy about electricity, but I found this: Convert Looks a little tricky. |

The Route 15 trolleys are all banged up. We had 2324 on New Year's eve, it was in fairly good shape as you see by Brian's photos.Here it is from out NYE trip. |

Thanks for the fine photos. The 15 demonstrates what could have been done on some of the other abandoned and inactive routes. Gomaco or Brookville can certainly provide equipment. Lee |

Thanks for the fine photos. The 15 demonstrates what could have been done on some of the other abandoned and inactive routesI agree, personally. Route 23's way overdue for such an operation. Gomaco or Brookville can certainly provide equipment You should have heard what a lot of detractors were on about when the problems with PCC-IIs first cropped up, though. |

Many of SEPTA's operators that work the 15 daily call them POJ-II's.POJ=Piece of junk. The bodies are patched together ,any small accident reveals rust areas almost immediately. Plus others problems too numerous to mention.. |

The Kawaski's (some of them), derailed at Cumberland loop. SO SEPTA got nervous and banned them on the 15. When the I-95 Girard Ave, rebuild is over, the Cumberland Loop may disappear. No issue any more..I-95 Revive |
