[PRCo] Re: Pathetic!!!!!!!

Greetings  to all
Try PAT's store on Smithfield Street at Mellon Sq,  Good selection.
If they dont have what you want at the Wood Street subway station,
try the PAT store.

Under John Mauro and I, we had a designated man whowent with two suitcases
to fill the various racks like in the Union Trust Bldg or US Steel

Putting timetables on the LRT should be easy.  Only 2 lines and cars can
carry both.  Putting them on buses is another matter.  Two many routes
in one garage.

Under PAT's first days, ex-private drivers picked up timetables at the 
garage
for their runs.  PRC Division 85 men could not be bothered.

With the use of the computer, there will be a general decline in the use of
printed schedules.

A little side point.    PAT schedules for many years were printed in Cedar
Rapids by Russels Guides and frequently shipped to Pgh via Greyhound Lines.
