Mr.Barry;


You always come up with very interesting photos don't you.

It will take some time to study this photo;  only the one overhead wire curves
onto the bridge.  The other wire could curve out of the picture to allow for
overhang of car ends.  I have the collection of bus articles on Pittsburgh;
now I need to find them and see if 'Shafer' routes can be identified.  Can we
deduce that trolleys are 4 times heavier than 'heavy' trucks?

It is now very tricky to save huge files isn't it since one can't right click.  It
is necessary to save parts and do a photo merge.  Must be an easier way.

This is a favorite of mine:
