The Car barn sat off to the left from the linked photo or about where I was standing in the first photo.

I put together a then and now shot of the Canonsburg sub station. The building looks about the same but things have sure changed around it.   Date: 02/05/12 19:51 Re: Pittsburgh PCC's at Canonsburg, PA Author: Pghtrolley Hello!
Something doesn't make sense with the Tylerdale photos. Where did the tracks go? To the East of the building or to the West? Also, if you look East from the Google image, you can see the foundation of what appeared to be another structure. |
