Stayed on Warrington (Washington).  Did not go under Palm Garden trestle.  
Entered yard area part way up Warrington, joining the 42 line about middle 
of yard.  Might want to check Pittsburgh digital history site for circa 1917 
plat map of southside Pittsburgh:  should show all yard tracks of that era.
