> awarded the $220,000 trolley contract to Mukilteo-based Advanced Construction. Anyone familiar with that company? I know there was/is a company in the area that had done other railcar restorations, is this the some one? I vaguely recall the company I'm thinking of restored an interurban for display somewhere? Anyone recall that? What car was it, and where is it now? |

Boy, I'm hoping that this trolley thing goes through. I've been waiting and watching for quite awhile. True, you can walk the length of the track in about 15 minutes, but hopefully they'll be able to extend it a little ways (I think the boat launch was the intended destination point). If the trolley is successful, I'd like to see the old Melbourne cars from Seattle's waterfront streetcar end up there. As for the interurban car, I think that would have to be Seattle-Everett Interurban car #55, now on display at Alderwood's Heritage Park. |
