[PRCo] Re: 4366 on Nevergreen

[Edward H. Lybarger]

Re abandonment dates:  We try to cite the last day of scheduled service as
the termination date.  In the case of Route 12, that was Saturday, 12-5-53.
December 6 was the first day without the trolleys.

For what it's worth:::::

*1946 PRCo Guide Routing:

12-Evergreen
Evergreen Rd at City Line, Inbound to East St, North Ave, Sandusky St,
Robinson, Ninth St Bridge, Ninth, Penn to Seventh; Outbound via Seventh,
Seventh St Bridge, Sandusky, North Ave, Madison, East St, Evergreen Rd to
City Line.
RUNS RUSH HOURS ONLY

All other times from East St at Evergreen to City Line and return to East &
Evergreen only.

Also the book Pittsburgh Railways, by R Beal, indicates the line abandoned
6 December 1953. The last car operated on Rt 12 was 4393 and it was also the
last  double-end car in regular service on the PRCo system.
