Oh, yeah by the way
or
I just want to expand on that PCC car a little. First of all, there is talk in Kansas City that one is to be restored with hopes of running it into the crossroads from Union Station. As far as I know, it's only talk. But to see a PCC car in any kind of shape somewhere unexpected in the City gives me hope.
Heres some links:

http://www.ectma.org/collection.html = trolley museum site -- scroll down for more about Kansas City PCC cars
