To further add to the mystery, a photo in "Touring Pgh by Trolley" (Harold A. 
Smith, 1992) has a photo taken from the opposite direction at Jane Street 
Loop. The line pole in the Daves photo (right/foreground) is not visible in 
the Smith book photo. The only pole prior to the trolley track coming in from 
the right is two houses from that track. Thus, the photo on Daves website 
would have some of the last house showing in order to have the line pole 
showing. Also, the 'car stop' sign is not showing in the Smith book photo. 
Both photos would have been taken in the same era inasmuch as the Smith book 
photo shows PAT "stick-on" decals on the car shown in that photo. However, 
with all of this the location still remains a mystery.
