odd cars at 30th st

coming off of the vine st expressway to 76, i see over in the coachyard 3 or 4 old, somewhat worse for wear looking fluted SS passenger coaches, each with a thick green or maroon stripe running over top the windows, along with a dome ended observation car. what the hell are they?

I saw them on Friday July 20th also. There were three silver passenger cars, not the Juniata terminal cars.

In the New Jersey forum there is a photo of these 3 cars plus the E8s and 2 Juniata Terminal Cars under the Heading "PRR 5711 and 5809 to tour CSAO - 7-21 Sunday"

yup, that was them. i'm sure they're still nice inside but they could use some polish outside.
