<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'> <BR>FTA is still spending big bucks. Charlotte is getting some for light rail extension to Univ. North Carolina and an east-west streetcar line. Something seems to be going on in Cincinnati, St. Louis and Kenosha, but I just don't follow anymore as in years past. <BR> <BR>Likewise maybe Minneapolis - line to St.Paul. Might also want to check New Orleans, Tucson, San Francisco central subway, and Los Angeles Pasadena extension. Also saw a mention about Norfolk extension to Virginia Beach, but might still be in talking/planning stage. Atlanta and Miami??? Again, I don't follow as in year's past. <BR> <BR>Here's a picture of the blank wall in the North Shore extension tunnel for a right turn towards East St./I-279. The current north shore alignment curves to left thru vehicle. The blank wall to right is for future extension.<BR> <BR> <BR><div id="inlineImage0" style="display: inline-block;"><!--tmpl() _78--><span contenteditable="true"> </span><div class="inlineImage" style="display: inline-block;" contenteditable="false" initheight="532" initwidth="709"><img width="709" height="532" src="cid:inlineImage0"></div><span contenteditable="true"> </span><!--/tmpl--></div> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR><br> <BR><div>> Date: Sat, 9 Nov 2013 10:25:11 -0500<br>> From: shadow@dementix.org<br>> To: pittsburgh-railways@mailman.dementix.org<br>> Subject: Re: [PRCo] First Harmony Car Enters Pittsburg<br>> <br>> On Sat, Nov 9, 2013 at 10:19 AM, Herb Brannon <hrbran@cavtel.net> wrote:<br>> <br>> > Derrick,<br>> > As I was writing that last answer to your first post, I was thinking the<br>> > same thing about using the HOV lanes then into the tunnel on North Side.<br>> > Also, the current alignment of East Street could be used to a North Avenue<br>> > subway to connect to the existing rail line.
