[PRCo] Re: Fw: Route 54

[Edward H. Lybarger]

This could have been a railfan movement.  I never heard of PCC cars on 54,
even though the sign may have been there.  If it's Lincoln Avenue loop, the
topography appears to be OK.  The picture is so distorted that it's hard to
put it all into perspective.

Now we just need to determine when the Johnny Long Orchestra was in
Pittsburgh.

It doesn't look like Craft which didn't have a high hill close to the car
house.   Possibly Carrick car house? 

  

I also noted the sign on the car to the right advertising Vogue Terrace
which was a dinner theater in East Pittsburgh; in it's heyday in the 30's
and 40's it hosted big bands such as Lawrence Welk, and in the 50's singers
and other entertainers. It was destroyed in a fire in May, 1963.

A short-working of 77/54? 

Interesting photo. Â  Craft Car House maybe? Â
