[PRCo] Re: Historic Pittsburgh - Rankin - and other locations

[John Swindler]

Also check out Marathon Oil.  There is a pic of a rt. 71 Negley car.  For 
those who say - so what's so unusual about a rt. 71 car? - Well, this is a 
high floor car pulling a low floor trailer.

The City photographer collection also includes a view of a PRC freight motor 
being unloaded/loaded and the Second Ave. crossing of B&O in Hazlewood - not 
the underpass at Greenfield that we remember, but the original at-grade 
crossing further east.

Interesting browsing
