PITTSBURGH LIGHT RAIL
Castle Shannon, Many Wires |
|
|
|
|
When Pittsburgh's light rail network was
transformed in the 1980s it was rebuilt with rather massive power
poles and overhead wire construction. The pole in this view near Castle Shannon carries the overhead power for just
one direction of travel. Some transit observers considered the
work to be engineering overkill, and few people of any kind would
likely find it aesthetically appealing. The train in view will soon reach the junction with the Overbrook line,
and then will head
out to South Hills Village. |
