I have only ever seen a photograph of a streetcar with a VERONA destination sign, and also, a photograph of the trestle that once crossed over Coal Hollow Road at Verona Road, but no other pictures that documented trackage somewhere on the line. Taken in 1936, I imagine the cars were still running over this trackage since the line wasn't abandoned until the following year - I think cutback to Laketon Road. The photo is from the Historic Pittsburgh site, and here is the description:
