Good quality considering this is super 8 to video to DV; I enjoyed the ride.
Especially as I ride that stretch on our wonderful modern "T".
Suggestion: why don't you put Pittsburgh as one of the tags?

Ah, yes, the old 47S with the old streetcars. Actually, if that was the trolley you caught, you might have hit a goldmine: That was a 1700's car which only ran until 1988.
I never was able to see the 47S via Overbrook in its old fashion, but I did take the 47D when only 3 PCC cars were left.
I heard something ... ( 2 months ago by RDG484)
I heard something from a retired PATransit motorman just a few days ago. For a time when the Library loop was being rebuilt, PAT put front poles on a few of their PCC cars so they could run backwards from Library to Washington Jct. They almost leased 5 Red Arrow cars from SEPTA until they found out they were too wide. they also looked into a few of Boston's "Texas Ranger" PCC double-enders but that too fell through. Imagine seeing a Red Arrow St. Louis, Brilliner or Master Unit-type on PAT!!
