	Another thought - after 1984, SHJ tisn't much of an "J" - is it? 
Doesn't begin to compare with the real junction.  Seriously doubt that
Pgh. railfans were hoping for abandonment, but those who knew the system
may just simply prefer the old jct as opposed to the new.  I'll allow
them that!

	Last time I was in Pgh was the summer of 1984 and I rode a PCC from SHV
to Station Square and back - don't remember anything about SHJ.
