Pacific Electric Tower Car (aka. a line car) 00157 was out on the mainline yesterday to get her juices running (pun fully intended). You need to do this with old girls once in a while. She followed the passenger carrying PE Blimp 418 up and down the mainline a few times and she will string the wire for the extension to the Perris Transportation Center. Here's four pictures and a very short video. Enjoy. Comments and corrections please.
