Too bad. I guess since there are no factories remaining everyone works bankers hours? Or so the PAT management believes. We still have 14 routes w/ 24-hour service.

Unfortunately, 24-hour service died in the first round of cuts, around 2003
if memory serves.  When it started in '01, one of my friends (who grew up in
Stockholm) told me that "Pittsburgh is becoming a real city!"  Well...
