Didn't 49 Beltzhoover also go last day of 53, which was really a renumbering of 47??  So is March '68 a renumbering, not abandonment of rt. 47???
 
Then the first day of 49 Arlington-Warrington would have been the following day in 1971??
 
What about 10th St. bridge service???  Wasn't that rt. 53??  Did 53 get rerouted to Smithfield St. bridge for awhile before replacing 47?
 
Was away at school during this era.
