[PRCo] Pittsburgh Railways Co. Track Map

[Edward H. Lybarger]

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.

The Toronto map does not appear to be a track map except for the insets
which came up so small that I could really not make much of them. The main
map appears to be a route map. Again, I am only going from what I could pull
up through the link.

as either the ERA or the PRMA track maps of PRC. Granted, some improvement
in them would be useful and appreciated, but "toggling" between the two
(manually, using paper versions) is the best solution I have found to
unlocking mysteries of PRC. I supplement this when appropriate with
maps.Google offerings.

Perhaps it would be a worthy project for PTM to issue a PRC map with greater
detail, better street name offering, and the like. Anyone up for taking this
on?

Dwight
