Really never saw any photos of the car line which ran from the West End up to Mt. Washington.   Here's a couple, one with just trackage shown, and the other with a car going by.
The first photo (from Historic Pittsburgh website) is described as:

Title: Exposed and Broken Sewer Line
Date: August 10, 1934
Creator: Pittsburgh City Photographer
Description: Woodruff Street improvement.

The second photo is from the book, Images of America, Mt. Washington & Duquesne Heights.  Got it right from a Google search:   http://books.google.com/books?id=tzsu58CfZrQC&pg=PA51&lpg=PA51&dq=trolley+woodruff+street+to+mount+washington&source=bl&ots=_g_Z38zGSU&sig=SkEuveN-Sv7ishl_MeY2HXFRXx4&hl=en&ei=ldSlTXLCt7YHjaeEvQI&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CBsQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=trolley%20woodruff%20street%20to%20mount%20washington&f=false
