PC: Re: Pass. car roofs

["Stephen Foster" <wabash57@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Once someone told  me NYC NEVER had any black roof cars , because they
hadn't seen any or pix thereof.  I have lots of pix and videos of such cars,
but not all were black... and not all silver or stainless.

I am sure the same surely holds true of the PC fleet.  anyone want to
enlighten us further?
keep your rails shiny
