Whoa! John! Not at all, at least for me.
I grew up crawling all over the sides of the hill around the Bon Air stop
and am very interested in the P&CS, since I used the grading for one of the
mine leads along with a switchback to walk from my home to the Bon Air Stop.
How can I painlessly (for you) get hold of these drawings of a spur ACROSS
Saw Mill Run (WOW!) from the Bon Air Stop??????
