Yes, PC would leave New England,  however in reality the New Haven colors
are alive and well here in CT.  We are blessed to have a Dept. of
Transportation which has adopted the New Haven paint scheme as it's own.  
Units NH never owned as well as the celebrity FL-9's roam the state proudly
painted and lettered New Haven.    Now, how about New York adopting NYC,
Pennsylvania- PRR,  New Jersey- PC???
