I recently scanned some maps at the Pennsylvania State University Map
Library including one that shows the Pittsburgh Railways Co. circa 1930.

The map does not have a date, but I based my guess on the following:
Shows bus routes 16 Castle Shannon, 17 Monitor Street and 18 McKeesport
begun in the first half of 1930. Does not show bus route 19 Highland Park
opened in December 1930.

If you have any additional thoughts as to date, I would appreciate them.

Also scanned was a 1938 map of Ellwood City that shows the right of way of
the Harmony Line.
