[PRCo] Re: Passing trolleys

[John Swindler]

Was going to comment that it was more likely a 22 Crosstown car on North Ave 
rather then 77/54, which looped on Gen Robinson St., then looked at the 
date.  Was 77/54 rerouted to North Ave. by 1965??  Because didn't 22 
Crosstown go about two years earlier????
