Hello all,
Here is a short photo booklet I bought that was worth the price to me as
it contains pics I have never seen of East End Lines, the Aspinwall and
Morningside lines, Munhall, McKeesport, West End, and others including
the South Hills and interurbans lines (which seem to be everywhere).
The only thing is a good deal of the captions describing the photos are
wrong. They're close, but no cigar. For example, a 65 Munhall coming
down 12th Street clear as a bell is described as the ^0 East Liberty on
8th Ave. Two cars rounding South Hills Junction are described as two
cars at the Carrick loop. Oh well.
Here is the book:
Pennsylvania Trolley Photo Album, vol#2 Pittsburgh Railways Co. Nice
photo companion to above history. Many black & white PCC's and some low
floors, circa 1940's-early 1960's, Rohrbeck, spiral bound, $10.00 NEW
And here is where I got it:
