Wrong Side *Point* -- Trivia

Greetings!

	Mention has been made earlier of a turnout at Tioga loop where the
point of the switch was in the outside rail and the mate was in the
inside rail.  This is the reverse of the norm for PRCo and most transit
systems  --  except LATL where the point in the outside rail was the
norm!
	I found two more on PRCo - the trailing switch leaving Craft to inbound
Forbes and the switch to Glassport on the inbound 56-line.
