Thanks for the photo of South Shore 1100. As a tower car fan, I'm glad to see this survivor of the Midwestern interurban days finding a home with trolley wire for it to work on (although I realize that some modifications will have to be made to convert it back to 600 volt operation.)

That last photo sure does like like it was taken at the Wheaton shops, eh?

Thanks!

My thoughts exactly (except for some of the paint colors).
