Never a consideration.  West Penn's transit operations weren't something
they would have coveted.

The WP buses were orange and cream, with a green stripe.  I thought NCL was
different.

There is a color pix of a West Penn bus in there that is painted almost like
the National City Lines stuff. I wonder if NCL had plans for West Penn ?

  There are new Frank B. Fairbanks images on the Historic Pittsburgh site.
This set contains both Pgh Railways and some West Penn Railways photos.
  Like the one attached of a Millvale PCC inbound after just leaving the
Millvale Loop.

  The link is here:
