Is there any map available in this record?  If so, can it be copied or even
photographed?

I have in front of me (I'm at the Pitt Archives) a contract from __ of
September 1924 with the Pittsburgh Steel Company and the W,M, BV and FC with
regard to relocating their track onto the Steel Company's property because
the state highway department wanted their right of way. State Aid Route
#143, Section 2, the trolley line to be on the western or river side of the
new road. Found in Box 213 of the P&LE
(document) collection.

lightweight cars.   For all intents, the two companies were one and the
same.   The both quit in 1933 and their six newer cars found their way to
Allentown, PA after about five years sitting idle in the barn in Charleroi.
Lehigh Valley Transit then changed its mind about spending the money to
regauge them and sold them instead to Virginia Electric and Power.   VE&P
had a dual gauge operation in Norfolk ... South Norfolk was broad gauge.   I
think the line through to the Naval Base might also have been wide gauge.  
I don't remember all the numbers in Norfolk but 703 was of the Charleroi
cars.
