Mont, the car in the circa 1980 photo matches those features, but
we're talking about 30 years later! By 1959 the NYSW only showed
two cars remaining of those 35 PS-1's they bought in 1952. What
happened to the other 8 is a mystery... the #526 could be either
the #401 or #402, which were still on the roster in 1972!

Tim:

Are these 40 ft. PS-1's with 6 ft. five panel Superior doors? If so they
may have become Monon 541 - 565. An equipment diagram note reads as
follows:

"NOTE:- THESE CARS WERE PURCHASED 2ND HAND FROM N.Y.S.& W. RR. 9-21-56."

The diagram indicates the cars were built in 11-52, lot no. 8080.
