You're showing the same common sense that made the Marmon-Herrington, GMC
Fishbowl and PCC major successes. Something the new generation of Yank transit
managers seem to lack.

To get back on topic, I would guess that if Pittsburgh Railways ever did
convert the West End lines to trolley coach operation, they would have most
likely purchased ACF-Brills. They seemed to have an affinity for Brill motor
coaches and could standardize on body parts, etc.

I wonder if Pittsburgh trolley coaches would have been red and white (being
electric) or orange (being rubber tire coaches)?
