Goin' Goin' Gone

This was the world's first privately owned subway system owned by Leonard's in Fort Worth. Unfortunately, it is no more. Its been torn up for the new Headquarters for Radio Shack.
This car is NOT gone. It was purchased by the McKinney Avenue Transit Authority in Dallas. It has been refurbushed, repainted and converted to a trolley and is currently running along McKinney Avenue.
The car's new nickname is Winnie, since it sort of looks like a Winnebago, but I like to call it Frankentrolley.
Here's a link to a picture of it: http://mata.org/images/ontheline/143-002.htm
