When I lived in the Pittsburgh area (1997-99), I was in walking distance from the West Library stop, near the end of the Library branch -- so I'm quite familiar with the light rail. Although I've got to go back one of these days so I can ride the Overbrook line, which was closed for (re)construction the entire time I was living there.

Hello fellow Pittsburgher.

You're not missing anything on the Overbrook line trainman.

They have recently closed down some stops, but no major changes
