Who would have guessed that Jerusalem had streetcars. Check out the<br>> photos attached. Also, who would have guessed that it snows there. I worked<br>> in Saudi Arabia, which is pretty much in the same area, and it was always<br>> hot.<br>> <br>> Last, no more "taking the trolley" to work for me. I got a new, full time,<br>> job with Allegheny County Government beginning July 14. I will be a clerk<br>> in the Department of Children, Youth & Family Services/Northern District<br>> Family Court, on Perrysville Avenue, in Pittsburgh. Too bad the number 8<br>> trolley doesn't operate.<br>> <br>> One more item. There are a couple spots remaining for the "Trolley Picnic"<br>> at PTM on August 2nd. Let me know at <hrbran@cavtel.net> if you want to<br>> attend.<br>> <br>> -- <br>> Herb Brannon<br>> <br>> <br>> *In Pittsburgh.............................A City And.........A State of<br>> Mind*<br>> <br>> Let's Go Bucs<br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> -------------- next part --------------<br>> An HTML attachment was scrubbed...<br>> URL: http://mailman.dementix.org/pipermail/pittsburgh-railways/attachments/20140708/486f14ba/attachment.html <br>> -------------- next part --------------<br>> A non-text attachment was scrubbed...<br>> Name: Jerusalem_Light_Rail_08.jpg<br>> Type: image/jpeg<br>> Size: 192347 bytes<br>> Desc: not available<br>> Url : http://mailman.dementix.org/pipermail/pittsburgh-railways/attachments/20140708/486f14ba/attachment.jpg <br>> -------------- next part --------------<br>> A non-text attachment was scrubbed...<br>> Name: Jerusalem_Light_Rail_in_Zion_Square_on_A_Rainy_morning_-_November_2011.jpg<br>> Type: image/jpeg<br>> Size: 6974875 bytes<br>> Desc: not available<br>> Url : http://mailman.dementix.org/pipermail/pittsburgh-railways/attachments/20140708/486f14ba/attachment-0001.jpg <br>> -------------- next part --------------<br>> A non-text attachment was scrubbed...<br>> Name: JerusalemCarHouse.jpg<br>> Type: image/jpeg<br>> Size: 28909 bytes<br>> Desc: not available<br>> Url : http://mailman.dementix.org/pipermail/pittsburgh-railways/attachments/20140708/486f14ba/attachment-0002.jpg <br>> -------------- next part --------------<br>> A non-text attachment was scrubbed...<br>> Name: JerusalemLightRailSnow_sm.jpg<br>> Type: image/jpeg<br>> Size: 106715 bytes<br>> Desc: not available<br>> Url : http://mailman.dementix.org/pipermail/pittsburgh-railways/attachments/20140708/486f14ba/attachment-0003.jpg <br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Pittsburgh-railways mailing list<br>> Pittsburgh-railways@mailman.dementix.org<br>> https://mailman.dementix.org/mailman/listinfo/pittsburgh-railways<br></div></div></div>                                            </div>
