> I have two old maps which are from the Pgh Rlys Company files. They are track maps of both interurban lines from Boggs to the end of each line. The maps are a wealth of information. They show all trackwork, all switches, all sidings, length, in feet, between switches/sidings, all bridges and the type of bridge, all blind curves and their direction (outbound), all steep grades, up or down (outbound), capacity of each siding/loop and the schedule times (in minutes past the hour) at each siding/loop and the name of each stop.
