Birney car 25 Fort Collins Municipal Railway trolley
Author: highgreengraphics

Fort Collins Municipal Railway Birney car No. 25 is eastbound in Fort Collins, CO on Mountain Ave. at the (former) Mack St. siding, intact in the concrete but with both switches long missing. Car 25 is in the 1951 color scheme, in service to supplement Birney No. 21, after undergoing a 10-year restoration by volunteers that began in 2009. === === = === JLH

That's a beauty! (Having ridden on 21, I'm still partial to that one and that CSU paint scheme though.) Thanks for the pic!

Nice catch and looking good. I volunteer as an operator at the Pennsylvania Trolley Musuem in Arden, PA.
