It was sold to Lehigh Valley Transit as 1030 in 1941 and preserved by Seashore Trolley Museum in 1951. The young man in the white cap in the first picture of 55 is Howard Odinius, who is regarded as the "Father" of the Illinois Railway Museum.

65 was built by Pullman in 1931, #6399. The lounge section was replaced by a baggage section. 65 was sold to the Cedar Rapids & Iowa City as 120 in 1941. In 1954 it was purchased as the first car of the Illinois Railway Museum, which was known as the Illinois Electric Railway Museum at that time. I put in many enjoyable hours working on that car prior to 1960 when I moved to Peoria.

Choose Life.
Mom did.
Be one of the small number who find the way to life, and enter by the narrow gate into Heaven. Take care not to follow the majority and the common herd, so many of whom are lost. Do not be deceived; there are only two roads: one that leads to life and is narrow; the other that leads to death and is wide. There is no middle way.
— St. Louis de Montfort
