With the reopening of the Overbrook line in
June, 2004, colorful revised system maps were installed at the major
"T" stations. This particular one is at South Hills Junction,
where on the map the orange-colored Allentown line ends back into
the rest of the system south of the Monongahela River. The
Overbrook route is represented south of that point by the blue and
green routes that diverge right; and Beechview, by the red and brown
lines to the left.
It took a bit of reading for many to
realize that some of the specific services and route identifications
shown were not scheduled to begin
operation until several months later -- an event which did not
happen quite as planned. The very limited service
then available to and from Penn Station is not depicted at all. |
