After the 40 Mt Washington lost trolley service on September 4 1966, the tracks next to the yard became storage for the likes of 1764. Two of the buildings with pits and a total of eight tracks are visible. The two buildings with pits are here visible housing tracks 7 thru 14, with 4 tracks in each building. Track 7 is behind the white object in the foreground with the air-electric PCC on track 8 and the 1700-series car on track 10. You can see the 2nd building with the signature round window in the peak under the roof, bricked in some time in the 1940s.
