	Given.    Obviously post-1944 for service runs but something
else we shall never know.

	What would the official destination sign be for the 63-line.  
Didn't this terminate on Corey Avenue?   The PTM map lists it as
63-Corey Ave.
	Single-enders could never work this routing unless it just
simply looped E.Pgh or looped the old Rankin Bridge Circle - but
then it couldn't be 63-Corey, could it.

	Was there a 63-Corey which ran to and from E.Pgh only?
