West Jersey Chapter members watch as a wheel set is moved by hoist to a truing machine (out of sight to the right) to adjust the wheels’ running surface profile at PATCO’s shop complex in Lindenwold, N. J. In the foreground is a Pioneer III truck equipped for over-running third rail operation, which is used on all PATCO cars. The blue, green, and grey cylindrical canisters behind the truck are traction motors, color-coded by supplier. The cars visible in this scene are 1059 on the left and 1080 in the center, both PATCO II cars built by Vickers as 259 and 280, respectively, and rebuilt by Alstom in Hornell, N. Y. Our tour included a visit to the new shop building erected to service the newly refurbished cars. Photo by John W. Burlage.
