Does anyone have any information on which cars the Broad Street Subway operation in Philadelphia retained for historic purposes? I've heard that SEPTA stil has three of the old steel cars. I'd be interested in which cars they are, what they look like these days, and what condition they're in.

They have three of the old cars, one of each type (North Broad, South Broad and Bridge)including car #1. #1 was retro-painted to its as-bulit appearance while the others are in basic red. The train hasn't run in years.
