It's #MuseumMonday, which means it's time to shine the spotlight on part of our collection: Monongahela West Penn 274! Car 274 was built in 1918, and was modern for its time - it featured all-steel construction as well as multiple-unit (MU) control. (1/3)

Here’s a fun idea, reply with Thomas items you royally fucked up as a kid I’ll start:
In the twilight of the Sacramento Northern, excursions were quite popular with railfans who endeavored to relive the nostalgia of a bygone era. Nearing the shuttered Moraga Depot in the fog, #1005 was the star (as it is today) of those excursions on the South End! c. 8/10/1952
This #MuseumMonday we're asking for your help in bringing an important part of our collection back into service! #Pittsburgh Railways M1 was the very first car purchased by our founders, and is the oldest electric #streetcar in our collection. (1/3)
