Anyone have any pictures, new or old, of the Toledo Railways parlor car Toledo, recently acquired by the PTM? Searched around for some but I couldn't find any. Thanks in advance.

The only photo I have seen is in CERA Bulletin 103 "The Electric Railways of Michigan." I do not have my copy handy, but it is toward the back of the book. Toledo Railways had a connection with a short electric line that supplied passengers to the beach near the lake. There is a photo of the Toledo and another unidentified car at the lake siding, being used as temporary housing (with buckets under the the toilet openings) before motoring its passengers back to Cleveland.

I have a couple of slides of it from 1979 at North Olmsted. But alas, right now my slide scanner has died. At that time it was an empty shell on freight car trucks, and I would have thought it's pretty much still the same. So would that help?
