[PRCo] Re: Pike Street

[Edward H. Lybarger]

The blog entry is absolutely incorrect about WP 832's running into
Pittsburgh from the Allegheny Valley in the 1920s.  That service ended early
in the 'teens and has been discussed here before.  (I don't have the date at
my fingertips!)

In the midst of looking through the "picasaweb" photos, I came across the
attached one of a PCC on Pike Street in Canonsburg on August 30, 1953.

More of a description is here at this link:
