Mr.Sauerburger;

Thank you.  Not a trolley in sight is there.  I know it is
coincidence yet it happens so often it seems planned.
The description states the new parkway reduced traffic
on local streets.  Here is another observation (not a
criticism:)  this construction also decimated neighborhoods
most likely dependent on trolleys as they certainly
didn't have garages let alone space to keep an auto.
This photo gives clarity to the trackage that turned from
2nd.St to under the Brady bridge doesn't it.  I wonder if
that track was once revenue service;  it seems a bit much
for just emergency use.  Seems there is also much construction
to the right of 2nd as well doesn't it.

Your signature is unique and self-explanatory to most of
us isn't it!


Phil
