Not really splitting hairs, Tom, but trying to indicate that the boxes do
not necessarily indicate  THE  end of the line.   Cars could have laid over
elsewhere and then moved on to the boxes to punch in.

On the 42-Dormont, the outbound box at Biltmore was an extremely long block
(could actually be considered 2-blocks) away from the end and was followed
by 2-car stops - before the wye and on the wye leg.

Yes - but the Dormont boxes were as close as practical to the end 
of the 42-DORMONT line -- I think this is splitting hairs.

	Not always at the terminal!   42-Dormont was at the entrance to the wye
outbound at one time but was moved to nearside Biltmore later (not a
passenger stop.)

	And the inbound box was about 2-3--car lengths inbound of the wye!
