  I was recently reviewing the maps here and noticed something. I know the 
Charleroi interurban used the 38A trackage into Pittsburgh. At Dormont 
Junction, there is no place for an inbound car to join the 42 line unless it 
changed ends on West Liberty Ave. and entered the wye(highly doubtful).  I 
guess the Charleroi interurban  used the 38 trackage through Dormont until it 
joined the 42 at Dawn, correct?  This would make one heck of a long trip. 
Also, did the Washington interurban use the same trackage and when did both 
interurbans start using the route of the old P&CS(Overbrook)? Thanks!
