I need help identifying the location of a slide I just acquired from the
Wallan collection through Al Chione.
The slide footnote says: location passing Moose Lodge in Uniontown.
It is car 723 on a main line run and no indication of a fan trip car.
The car is making a sharp left turn from a side street to the street the
photographer is standing on. The Moose building is on one corner (the street
tees into the
one the photographer is standing on and a second side street tees off to the
left just in front of the photographer and is slightly this side of the Moose
building). It appears on a white or sandstone building on the far corner of
the street the 723 is turning from is a sign "bus" but it could be
"business".
All of my maps on Uniontown show the line leaving the terminal towards
Connellsville
and taking the prw from Court St. over the creek and railroad, past a siding
and back into Main St. at Pennsylvania. Then the Fairchance line turns off
at Stewart while the main line bears left and continues out Connellsville St.
Where it leaves Connellsville to pass the car barn is not a sharp turn.
If 723 was on a fan trip I might think it was turning from Stewart onto Main
inbound.
Where else might the photo be taken from. Thanks
For those you bid on ebay I have changed my ebay i.d. from
"fredbruhn at aol.com"
to "co-operative." A scam receipt that looked every bit an ebay message
wanting to verify my account asked for password, credit card info, etc. I
reported it to the real e bay and their suggestion was change my i.d. as
people using an aol or other i.d. were being targeted.
