SEPTA "RG2"

David H. Hamley · **Posted:** Wed Mar 24, 2004 1:17 pm

Pennsylvania Trolley Museum (Washington, PA) has acquired from SEPTA the former power car of a rail grinding train number RG2. We are converting this to a broad gauge shop switcher for our 62.5" ga trolley operations. I am seeking photos of it in use and in particular the information from it's missing builder's plates. It carries the name "UGLY" at PTM, and it really is. Thanks for any help.
