[PRCo] Jack's Run Bridge, a/k/a High Bridge

[Dwight Long]

Dennis

Further to our recent exchange on the (now infamous) Jack=E2=80=99s Run =
bridge, here is a 1965 shot of Pittsburgh Railways inbound route 13 PCC =
coming off it. Just to the right of where the picture was taken was the =
junction with route 6 and the appropriately-named High Bridge loop.

More interesting to me were the more spindly trestles on this route =
built by the tramway company but paved over for auto use as well.  The =
second shot is one from 1959 showing another inbound route 13 PCC but on =
the Avalon trestle.  It=E2=80=99s unfortunate that the location was so =
treed in as the full height of the trestle is not apparent.  Both this =
one and another on the line were quite high.
