Enclosed is a copy of the LIBRARY Schedule the day after service to 
Charleroi Terminated.  Apparently the Castle Shannon service continues 
-- whether or not interlined with Library I do not know at this point.  
Washington service is hourly with hourly cars from Drake wye near 
Walthers stop, drake cars 30-min after a Washington car, by schedule.

Castle Shannon had Owl service as well -- those times marked with an 
asterisk* left IB from Castle Shannon or OB to Castle Shannon from 
downtown Pgh.

Castle Shannon cars used the 38-Mt.Lebanon outbound in the morning rush 
and inbound in the evening rush to lessen congestion through the single 
track.  The two extra sidings (McKinley Park and Edgebrook) were added 
"about this time" but may not have been installed by the time Washington 
Interurban service ended late-August-1953.
