[PRCo] PRCo Deadly Streets

[Edward H. Lybarger]

Thanks, Phil.  I wonder when they clocked the 10 minutes...midnight?  Even
from the old post office on Smithfield, that's a stretch during daylight
hours.

 I've seen this one before.
 Pretty definitive.  There's another that we used  in an exhibit a number of
years back that showed a giant  loop out the 39 and  down the hill to South
Bank -- the line that was open for a  couple months in  1910, the one that
went where exactly nobody lived!  I  thought I had a scan  of it but I can't
find it.
 
 Officers of the Freehold Realty firm bore an amazing  resemblance to those
of  the railway company.

 Ed,
 Here's another real estate ad from the era of Brookline  expansion. At
least  this company shows the trolley as the means to travel to and  from
Brookline  rather than the Liberty Tunnels.
