Y Marti and list; The North Shore photo is of the Harrison Shops at
5th and Harrison where the city street tracks gave way to private right
of way.
The S. Water Street bridge photo is looking north. The streetcar in the
foreground is turning off of Water Street onto Seeboth Street. Within a
'hundred' feet or so, the car will turn left onto S. 1st Street. This
difficult road configuratin was later straightened out with an angular
set of tracks and roadway running directly to S. 1st and Pittsburgh
Streets. A trianguar portion of the landscape remains on the west side
of the street and tracks. Incidently, the streetcar in the forefront is
an 800 type car.
The 600 type car in the next photo, I have trouble identifying the
location. I would need more background to do that.
Thanks, for posting the pix.... Don L.
