The 42/38 route was PRCo's original line to Castle Shannon (I've been told
the
date but can't lay my hands on it at the moment). Between Mount Lebanon and
Castle Shannon it used the old Pittsburgh Southern -> B&O alignment.
The 38 line out West Liberty came later.

The 1934 map showed no crossover to the 42 line from the 38 inbound. I
guess when the Charleroi line used this trackage there was a crossover there.
I will look at the 1905 map to find out.Thanks for the response Don!
