[PRCo] PRC overhead

[Phillip Clark Campbell]

PRC used double bracket arms to support the overhead along the 87-Ardmore
near Forest Hills.  Did PRC employ either single or double bracket arm poles
anywhere else?

Gantlet (gauntlet?) overhead was not unusual.  The sidings south of South Hills
Junction on the Interurbans is a good example.  Did the 49 on Climax and
Gearing use gantlet?  I believe this was the only usage in the South Hills.

The 27-28 single track from Woodlawn to Idlewood was gantlet.  Part of the
5 on Itin also had gantlet and a few other north lines may have as well.  Every
so often I notice such in photos.  Are there others?

For longer sections of single track PRC generally used directional frogs to
insure proper tracking when facing the point;  Drake south of Washington
Jct is a good example as is much of the 65.
