They also operated many of today's SEPTA lines (some were operated by Reading).There was also a set or two assigned to Washington, DC that ran the commuter train from there to Baltimore, long before MARC was created.

RE: PRR/PC MP54 ops

I was wondering if it was prototypical to run those cars down on that end of the NEC. I believe that I had read about a set that was used to ferry employees to and from the station in D.C., but that was it. Thanks for clearing things up.Henry
