From: David.Black@CMU-CS-A.ARPA For those who cannot conveniently make it to Boston on a regular basis for a dose of 'juice', help is available; the Arden Trolley Museum is now open for the season (weekends until July 4, daily thereafter). Located in Arden (near Washington,PA) it is the only broad gauge electric railway museum in the country. The historic collection of over two dozen trolleys, sweepers, etc. concentrates on Pennsylvania broad gauge equipment not found elsewhere. Trackwork is proceeding on the Arden extension, and we expect to have the fairgrounds siding completed in time for the county fair. At the moment there are three cars in the shop undergoing active restoration; a Brill Master Unit, a Brilliner, and a Pittsburgh double-ended low floor car. The Master Unit (Phila. and West Chester Traction Co. 78) should be restored to its original livery and condition by the end of the summer. Bring the family and a picnic lunch -- Spend the day, ride as often as you like, and wander through the exhibit area, car barn and restoration shop. Admission is reasonable and family rates are available. Volunteers and memberships are always welcome. Arden is a half hour drive southwest of Pittsburgh. Take I-79 south to the Meadowlands exit (# 8) and follow the signs. Enjoy!
