I decided earlier that taking pictures of remnants was a good idea, so I
stopped a few places today and did so

Look in
http://trolley.dementia.org/pittsburgh-today/

in the wilmerding folder you'll find shots of the track leading to the
now-gone viaduct, plus in the area where the loop was

in the mckeesport folder, 2 places: first is where the West Penn crossed 
over into Bryn Mawr, there was a bridge over a valley just after the line
turned away from the state road (Lincoln Way) in what's now White Oak.
Also the bit of track left exposed where 5th Avenue meets Lysle Boulevard
(which is where Jerome St/Jerome Alley was) near the bridge over to
Duquesne

in the braddock folder, exposed trackage at the east end of Braddock along
Braddock Avenue, where cars entered a side of road prw to run past Edgar
Thompson Works.
