[PRCo] Pittsburgh Railways Co. Track Map

[Phillip Clark Campbell]

I find the current Pgh trolley map quite sufficient Mr.Lybarger.  It does
have details for all track doesn't it, even non-revenue track.  The only
difference between this and the Toronto map is computer drawing
overlaid on a street map.  The computer map allows for enlargement
but this has drawbacks doesn't it.
.
I prefer the printed page over a computer screen as print allows much
more detail for given area.  Zooming on the computer isolates a very
small area for detail making it difficult to see how it fits the whole
without constant zooming back and forth.  This is not a problem
with the printed page is it.
.
A friend has a large format printer; I shall ask him to print the Toronto
map for study.

Unfortunately, there are many worthy publication projects that PTM might do,
but there are also too few people with too little time available to do them
or even supervise them.  I agree that the track map is one of them.

I used to be able to volunteer 1900+ hours annually to the museum, for
example, but last year it was down to 300+ hours.  Times and situations
change.
