Congratulations Dick. It is always good to hear about a family business where the family can work together successfully for the common good. So many fail in this regard. I always enjoy Dick's comments on this board. They are very thoughtful and worthwhile.

Here are a couple of pictures of # 100 in 1956 when the RR was still the East Portland Traction Company and interurbans still ran passenger service:

The trolley poles on the diesel activated the signal system for the interurbans.
