Come take a look behind the rails at Orange Empire Railway Museum, in this episode see Pacific Electric 1299. Host John Smatlak will take us inside the 1299 and see how original it looks.
This is a cool PE car. BTW I used to live in Balboa(Newport Beach) for 8 years! Until recently I found out that PE use to operate there. Wished there was PE service in SoCal again.
I use to see this every year at the fair when it was there, as a kid sure miss it here in Pomona, but am glad there taking care of it.

Fascinating video.
Well done to Walter {Whats 'is name} for saving and maintaining this old PE car in such an original condition...Brilliant.
I just watched "This was Pacific Electric" on DVD...well worth the money.
