WL>         I remember photos of the North Shore Electroliners
WL>in their original configuration with trolley poles.  Something
WL>like 100 mph service.  Probably the rescued one at the Illinois
WL>museum still has trolley poles.
If I recall correctly, the "Railways to Yesterday" trolley museum
at Orbisonia, PA has an Electroliner (5 segment articulated super-
interurban). This came equipped for 3rd-rail power, and had to be
modified by adding 4 trolley poles (2 for each direction; this car
has a VERY healty appetite!) to be run at the museum.
