[PRCo] 'burgh Transit Reports

[Dietrich, Robert J.]

I don't know if these have been discussed here or if I came up with a first.
While snooping around the U of Pitt "Historic Pittsburgh" pages I came
across two reports on transit.

http://digital.library.pitt.edu/cgi-bin/pitttext-idx.pl?notisid=00hc05255m&t
ype=header  was written in 1910 by Bion Arnold for Mayor McGee.  It appears
to place most of the blame of transit problems on poor accounting practices.


The second report --
http://digital.library.pitt.edu/cgi-bin/pitttext-idx.pl?notisid=00hc02383m&t
ype=header is a 1923 report, part of The Pittsburgh Plan.  It advocates lots
of subways and the use of the Wabash tunnel to alleviate the transit
problems.

One of these day's I'll get enough time to read through them.

The nicest thing about these documents is that John doesn't have to
transcribe them for us...
