The Latrobe CH has been shortened by about half at the street end.  Several
of us were there about a year and a half ago.

Looks to me like it's disappeared.   Look at both google and bing maps.
There is a small building on the south side of Loyalhanna Creek on the east
side of Ligonier St across from the brewery that sits back about 200 feet
from the street but it is only about 50 feet deep . could not put more than
one 700 in it if even that.   

I think the space next to it was where the barn was.

You look at it.

And I am sending by separate mail to Ed Lybarger to alert him.

Believe after WP folded, it was taken over by Rolling Rock as warehouse.
May still be there.
