The attached photo is from page 41 of Charles Jacques's 1982 Kennywood book.
It clearly shows the underpass at the lower right, inside the trolley loop.
Logical.  That's how most people still got there, including loads of
children.  You don't want them crossing a busy highway (although it's busier
now than then).
I had a phone call from Ron last fall regarding photos but haven't heard
anything since.

Yes Ed thank you for the track plan of Kennywood yards. Two questions
though, was the tunnel to Kennywood in existence in 1925, and if so, where
was it located on this drawing?

Also on an unrelated note, does anyone know what happened to Pittsburgh
Railways Volume II by Ron Beal? I mean was it ever printed?

Thanks
Ray
