My father was going to Central Catholic on 5th while this was going on,
and when I was younger he used to tell stories about such things as
waiting in a line of trolleys at a temporary crossover while things came
through the other way, and of his friends being ejected from the car for
hanging and/or tossing things out the windows. Somewhere I have some of
his "Pittsburgh Railways" permit cards, and I'll scan them if I can
remember what I did with them.

I only remember those tracks from a trip to Shadyside with my mother and
her sister... from when they were removing them from 5th!

For some reason he took the 76 instead of the 64 from Wilkinsburg...
