Have no idea.  Perhaps he knew your mother was a Donora passenger?    
Perhaps at certain hours the Donora cars did the local work in  
Monongahela?   (Remember that the Castle Shannon cars did all the  
local work in the rush hours between Pittsburgh and Frederick  
Street).   I never saw anything in the timetable about Donora cars  
running local and it does not make sense because there could have  
been people who would have wanted to get on and go to Charleroi so my  
thought is that the motorman recognized the people.  I've given you  
the speculative answer.   The honest answer is Fred doesn't know.
