Castle Shannon Incline --- Gleanings From *Trolley Fare*

[Jim Holland]

Greetings!

	Gleanings  From  *Trolley  Fare*
		January--1964

	"A contract has been let to the Diversified Contracting Company of
Bridgeville to tear down the Castle Shannon Incline for $18,700.  Work
should start soon and the association is investigating the feasibility
of obtaining the large building at the top of the incline as a second
car barn for Arden.  Meanwhile redundancy hits the Monongahela Incline,
where four jobs are to be eliminated by modernizing the operation with a
closed circuit television system.  Another first for Pittsburgh ?  A one
man incline ?"
