LVT Private Car 812
Title:  LVT Private Car 812
Description:  Image is a composite of two frames. Car #812, a 1914 800 series interurban, stops on its way to Allentown on the Philadelphia Division of the Lehigh Valley Transit Line as long-time LVT motorman Charlie Hauser (and famous LV NRHS member) stands near. This heavyweight was built as the copmany president's prviate car (#999) on the chassis of a wrecked 1901 high speed St. Louis deck roof car. It was converted to a passenger car in 1921 and re# 812, next to the 800 series Jewett interurbans (all of which were later turned into box motors or scrapped, while 812 survived until the end of service in 1951).

"Liberty Bell Limited" high speed service
Title:  "Liberty Bell Limited" high speed service
Description:  A 69th Street bound Lehigh Valley Transit Liberty Bell Limited meets the connecting bus for Richlandtown, which replaced the LVT trolley on that branch. The interurban is one of the former Cincinnati Car Company "Red Devils" (aluminum cars) built for the Cincinnati & Lake Erie. It would be in the 1000 series, built in 1930, sold to the LVT in 1939, retired in 1951 and scrapped at Bethelehem Steel shortly after in 1952. Although hard to see, this car still has 3rd rail shoes, which it will lose in a few months when service is cut back to Norristown. Note the sign to the Quakertown Airport. The station house on the left still exists today.

East Penn Rwy (EPRY)
Title:  East Penn Rwy (EPRY)
Description:  It took a search of STB documents to figure it out, but it seems EPRY sold most of its operations to Penn Eastern RR in 1997, except for this line. So 57 is actually operating for EPRY. Penn Eastern & EPRY merged in 2007 to form the current East Penn RR.
