[John Swindler]

View brings back memories, having grown up on 64 line in Edgewood.
Was told that those switches seen in this view of Braddock Jct. were used by 
Kennywood trippers from Wilkinsburg.  Thought these switches lasted into the 
early 1960s.
Verona cars terminated in Wilkinsburg, but don't know their routing.  As so 
often seems to happen, real answer resides in records at Penna. Trolley 
Museum.
