I'll chime in although I have not been following this Derry thread that 
closely.  The building Ed showed us was indeed the last WP Car Barn in 
Latrobe.  What remains today is the rear half of the building.   For those 
planning to go find it, just follow your nose to the Latrobe Brewing Co. 
makers of Rolling Rock Beer.  It is right across the street and some track is 
still visible in the curb area by the sidewalk.  

Ed showed us another building a few blocks away which I forget now but may 
have been another barn.  I hope he can elaborate.

If I can figure out this computer thingie I'll try and scan and download a 
picture of the Latrobe barn in later days.  Bill Gwinn took pictures on a fan 
trip to Latrobe.
