Why so difficult? It ran on Glenrose, Hazelton (oughtn't that be
Hazleton, considering we're in PA?), Bark, Wurzell and off this page
of the map. Maybe not in the carriageways of the streets always, but
following them nonetheless.
Bob, I've been meaning to offer: if you'll send me your mailing
address I'll pop off photocopies from the 1928 (or so) topographic
map of Fineview, 1:2400, locating the trolley line precisely. It's been
my guide for locating the picture locations, but you could make
better use of it than I can from 2000 miles away.
