I posted serveral groups of Roberta's pix on the "off topic, non-technical
forum" of the '55-'61 Chrysler site. These are pix featuring now vintage
automobiles that crept into Ms. Hill's view finder. Look for my postings
here:

The titles I gave the postings containing the Pittsburgh shots are generally
evident.

Some of these pix haven't been posted anywhere else and probably won't be
because they are generally some of her lousy shots. But they show vintage
automobiles as they looked "back in the day."

Some of the other threads are not for the faint of heart and so I am
revealing a darker side of myself  which up until now, only Charlie, Fred
and perhaps Don previously knew about..... :-/

K.

P.S.- Some of these guys already knew what a PCC is and one had a
grandfather who was a CTA motorman. The site administrator is from the Steel
City. Another guy visited Pittsburgh some years ago and rode the cars for
the fun of it.

I still say Route 40 would have been a delight for an evening Melbourne
style dinner tram, especially with a romantic pause in the tunnel. :-)
