Is your organization on this list?

Thanks to the folks who contacted me to send in photos - it's much appreciated! What I figured I'd do at this point is put up a specific request list. These are cars that are in public organizations or nonprofits (not private collections) for which I don't have any photos at all. Please take a look and see if your organization, or one near you, is here - if you've got a recent shot of any of these cars I'd really appreciate it. (And of course it's also possible that some of these cars have been scrapped, so I'd be grateful to know that as well.) Thanks!

    1. The Tandy subway cars may not be part of the NTHT collection any more. We were working on scrapping one of the cars that had been torn down by Tandy for a rebuild when the Tandy system shut down. I am always confused by the Tandy car numbers. Not sure which is which. Others know though.
