  It was a new weight restriction that took trolleys off Brady Street bridge.  Went with John Baxter to take some last weekend pix at north end of the bridge.    > From: mrb190 at pitt.edu

> The article explains the new route replacing a little shuttle, but it never states why the route is not allowed to cross the Brady Street Bridge.   Was the bridge provided with additional strength, allowing for a large bus to cross it, at this time?

> I guess it was, since I recall riding a regular PAT bus across it, in the early 70s.
