[PRCo] Re: Glassport 98 (99) Line

[Fred Schneider]

99 Glassport - Evans Avenue was a double-end car route that was  
replaced with PCC cars running on 98 Glassport from the loop in  
Glassport to Pirl Street Loop, McKeesport.   The south end of both 98  
and 99 were at approximately the same place.
