Gents:
I received a query yesterday and tried forwarding it to the list but never
say it appear, maybe the FWD doesn't work well.  In any case here it is
again in a reply.  Any good info we can send to Don?

Thanks.

Bob

Hi,  
 
I've had the attached slide in my files from a batch I bought long ago.  I
got to wondering where Snodders Switch was, but haven't found it online
anywhere.  I see the rte no is 78, and I did read in Ron Beal's wonderful
Volume One book about PRCO that there once was a 78 Verona Oakmont line.
The new CERA book has nothing on it.  
 
And the only web reference I found was an article about a development along
the Allegheny River that had "Snodders Switch" in the title, but no mention
of it in the article.  So I assume it was somewhere along the Allegheny
River.   Do you have any idea where it was?
