[PRCo] PRC Rt. 56B

[Dwight Long]

List

A while back John and I engaged in a dialog about former Rt. 56B.  This =
was the remnant of old Rt. 56 that resulted from that route=E2=80=99s =
re-routing when the new Dravosburg bridge was opened;  it served the =
10th Ward of McKeesport.  After Rt. 99 was converted to PCC operation =
and renumbered 98, the outer end of the former Rt. 99 (the Evans Avenue =
portion) was combined with Rt. 56B.  My fot 53-0111 shows car 4397 at =
the 10th Ward end of the line about a month before end of rail =
operations, which occurred on 27 May 1953.  As always, if Ecartis =
prevents you from viewing this fot, send me an email with your address =
and I=E2=80=99ll forward directly.
