I was just wondering, is there a septa and/or njt rail museum? If not, would making one be possible?

JeffK wrote:Hi Patrick, The sad collection I saw was definitely a large group of PCCs. IIRC there were news reports at the time re vandalism and weather damage so I’ll see if I can find anything archived somewhere.Where was this sad collection of PCC's under i-95 that you say you saw? I think you must be misremembering a different location. The only trolleys under i-95 were the Front and Laurel ones I mentioned.
Back in the 80s there were also cars stored on one of the Delaware River piers. Would you have any additional info on what became of them?

The location I remember was visible from the El after Spring Garden, which would be exactly what you described. My apologies for setting off a small wild goose chase
