A quick peek at the map seem to indicate that routes 60, 75, 82, 87, 88 and
96 would have used it in modern time. Routes 71 and 73 both crossed it.
Prior to its abandonment in 1918, 84 would also have been there. There may
have been other routes in the early years, since we haven't cataloged the
"don't go to town" routes that were so prolific but so short-lived in the
face of economic reality. We do know that there was track on both Euclid
Avenue and St. Clair Street; whether either did anything but cross Penn
Avenue is an issue for research.
