  Ms. HART. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
congratulate the Penn Detroit Diesel Allison company for the grand 
opening of their new state-of-the-art facility in Pittsburgh. The new 
facility will be located in Cranberry Township just outside of 
Pittsburgh.
  Penn Detroit Diesel Allison has provided the latest innovations in 
diesel engines, transmissions, and replacement parts to their customers 
for over 50 years. With the opening of their new facility, they will be 
able to ``provide our customers with a superior and professional 
service experience,'' said Jerry Tiffan, president of the company. The 
new facility is equipped with 10 drive-through service bays, and a full 
diagnostic service center.
  I ask my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to 
join me in honoring the grand opening of the new Penn Detroit Diesel 
Allison facility in Pittsburgh. It is an honor to represent the Fourth 
Congressional District of Pennsylvania and a pleasure to salute such a 
distinguished company like the Penn Detroit Diesel Allison company.
