These are several pieces of historic railway equipment stored at the Germantown Carhouse in Philadelphia, including these two Philadelphia snow sweepers built in 1923, seen here on June 26 2003. The historic cars were part of the Buckingham Valley Trolley Association collection which was transferred to the Electric City Trolley Museum in Scranton in 1999. To the left are two ex-Red Arrow St Louis Car built suburban cars. Everything in this photo except for the snow sweeper on the right has since been scrapped.
