The Electromobile goes to the Stourbridge Line

This photo is from a recent post on RyPN which relates that Scranton Transit 505, the last surviving Osgood-Bradley Electromobile, has been moved from its home at the Electric City Trolley Museum to the Stourbridge Line 30 miles away in Honesdale, PA. The latter operation will take point on some of the significant body repair and rebuilding work which (obviously) remains to be done. The scale of this project is impressive, given the totally disassembled kit that ECTM has started with, and it will be fascinating to see car 505 slowly regain its original appearance. On the PNAERC list the car's location has been changed to the Stourbridge Line, which is already included as an organization because they use a handful of Lackawanna MU cars in their excursion train. This is my standard practice to make it easier to track cars by physical location; other equipment like this snow sweeper in Baltimore are also stored at museums that do not own them. In my judgment it makes more sense to list them by physical location, at least in cases where the physical location already exists in PNAERC as an owner.
