One of you provided the link to this part of the Historic Pittsburgh
site some weeks back, and I must say, I have been enjoying occasionally
going into it and clicking on and expanding certain areas of the city,
as it was decades back. For instance, I always wondered where in
Morningside, the Pittsbugh Railways private right of way inbound
trackage was. With these maps I was able to discover that it was near
Standish Street, leading from Chislett to Jancey.
And I was able to see how the 56 and 55 routes landed off the Glenwood
Bridge into the Hays section. How Carson used to meet up with Baldwin
Road, etc.
Interesting and historic, for sure.
