Greetings!

PRCo   Abandonment   94,   95,   96.

"TROLLEY   OPERATIONS   on rtes 94, 95, 96 are scheduled to cease on the
night of November 12-13.   No formal 'last trip' plans are known.  
However, here is PRCo's schedule of the last regular trips:   
95--Butler St. nite cars leave 6th & Liberty hourly on the hour.   The
last 94--Aspinwall car will leave at 5.00-AM Sunday morning, lv
Aspinwall at 5.41, arr downtown 6.15.   Last regular car will lv 6th &
Liberty 12.30, Aspinwall 1.03, arr downtown 1.35.   Last 96 East
Liberty--62nd St trip will lv Larimer--Shetland at 12.38, lv 62nd St at
1.10, pass Larimer again at 1.32, Penn & Euclid at 1.35, and then to
Craft.   On the same date, PRCo plans to close Millvale operations,
supposedly moving its maintenance-of-way operations to Glenwood
carhouse.   And also, on that same date PRCo plans to initiate its new
system of bus route numbers.   A complete list of old with new
designations will be included in next month's Trolley Fare."   [But it
wasn't!  --  It appeared in the July--1961 issue - too many to type -
sorry!]
