[PRCo] P&LE station post card on ebay

[Bob Rathke]

The view in the post card showing the P&LE station and trolleys is from a very narrow window in time.  

The existence of trolleys would place it after the late Nineteenth Century, but the absence of automobiles means ir's no later than the very early Twentieth Century.  The P&LE station is in the view, as are the Court House, Oliver Building, B&O station trainshed and (possibly) the Frick Building in the background.  The year 1900 is a good guess.

Regardless, the P&LE passenger and freight stations still look the same in 2002.
