<P>As the Philadelphia Inquirer article states, it was the Rib-It restaurant in King of Prussia. Fort Washington is about 20 minutes to the east on the PA Turnpike. I just happened to drive by the site of the fire and you'll be happy to know that most of the rolling stock destroyed was nothing more than 4-5 good ol' expendable steel boxcars. I'm not totally sure, but it looked like there was only one passenger car that was part of the structure. Unfortunately, the only thing remaining was a heavily damaged frame, sans trucks/body. I'm not even certain it was an underframe as I drove by the site in a hurry. Funny thing is, I've lived in the area for 10 years and never even new what was inside that restaurant. Hope this helps.<p>Mike Shirk<br> |
