It's the first outbound stop after the line crossed Brownsville Road.  Coal
Bank was near that road crossing.  Sebolt was the next stop after Stewart.

At the Route 88 crossing there was West Library, followed by Simmons (the
latter-day Pleasant Street after the name Simmons got moved to the loop).
Later there was a Hicks stop between West Library and Pleasant Street.,
about where the Montour Railroad crosses over.

Route 88 sharply left the car line at the Brownsville Road intersection, and
did not join it again until the top of the hill at McChain.

  Is Stewart the last stop before the line crossed rt. 88? If so I had the
right location, was just off by one stop. I'm getting better Ed!

Is there a date to this photo, Jim?  Everything screams "Looking outbound
through Stewart stop."  The ridge lines are absolutely a match.  But my 1946
view shows a different shelter and a water barrel on the inbound side of the
pole at right, both of which could easily have been changed after the 1946
photo.  The shelter in your photo is definitely newer than the one in my
Dengler (mapping grade only) picture.
