CLE High Speed body int 1 Topton PA 8-20-90

Back in 1990 I paid a visit to Ed Blossom at Topton Pennsylvania. Ed was a famous trolley restorer and was involved with many restoration projects, going back to the ill-fated Magee trolley museum in Bloomsburg PA. Ed passed away in 2004, but the fruits of his labor live on at places like the Electric City Trolley Museum in Scranton. An article about Ed can be found here: www.nymtmuseum.org/headends/05winter/EdBlossomWinter05.html

 

This set of photos details a Cincinnati & Lake Erie "Highspeed" carbody that was to be restored, but I'm not sure what finally became of this one.
