I find the current Pgh trolley map quite sufficient Mr.Lybarger. It does have details for all track doesn't it, even non-revenue track. The only difference between this and the Toronto map is computer drawing overlaid on a street map. The computer map allows for enlargement but this has drawbacks doesn't it.<br>
.<br>
I prefer the printed page over a computer screen as print allows much more detail for given area. Zooming on the computer isolates a very small area for detail making it difficult to see how it fits the whole without constant zooming back and forth. This is not a problem with the printed page is it.<br>
.<br>
A friend has a large format printer; I shall ask him to print the Toronto map for study.<br>

Unfortunately, there are many worthy publication projects that PTM might do, but there are also too few people with too little time available to do them or even supervise them. I agree that the track map is one of them.<br>
<br>
I used to be able to volunteer 1900+ hours annually to the museum, for example, but last year it was down to 300+ hours. Times and situations change.<br>
