Do you know any Troop S station ID's from the old Interstate Patrol?

I've managed to uncover (I believe) the locations of all of the former Troop S barracks. Here is the list I've been able to put together, in alphabetical order. The only designation I know for sure would be Milesburg (S1). Someone in another post suggested that York may have been S20, and S8 and S11 were possibly Harrisburg and Hazleton (he couldn't remember which was which).

Belle Vernon, Fayette County
Chambersburg, Franklin County
Dunmore, Lackawanna County
Fern Ridge, Monroe County
Gibson, Susquehanna County
Harrisburg, Dauphin County
Hazleton [Valmont], Luzerne County
Highspire, Dauphin County
Milesburg (HQ), Centre County
Mount Pocono, Monroe County
Pittsburgh, Allegheny County
Quakertown, Bucks County
Swiftwater, Monroe County
Washington, Washington County
York, York County

PSP Barricks ID

On 1/1/65 PSP changed their station format to alpha numeric identifiers. Using a 1965 Pennsylvania road map I found PSP stations listed on the index that listed stations alphabetically. I am sure at that time (1965) the following have changed to the list you now have.

A4 was Apollo now Kiski Valley
A5 was New Kensington - closed

B3 was Carnegie then Findlay now Pittsburgh

C2 was Strattanville then Shippenville now Clarion
C4 was and still is DuBois
C5 was Kane then Mt. Jewitt now Kane

D5 was Warrendale - closed

E3 was Franklin then Seneca now Franklin

F4 was Lock Haven now Lamar
F8 was Shamokin now Stonington

G6 might have been Pleasant Gap

H5 Duncannon now Newport

J3 Coatesville then Dowingtown now Embreeville
J4 Thorndale then Exton - closed
J5 Ephrata

K2 Media then Franklin Center now Media
K3 Schwewnksville then Limerick now Skippack

L3 Mahanoy City now Frackville
L5 & L6 Don't have a clue

M2 Quakertown now Dublin
M4 Doylestown - closed
M6 Easton then Stockertown now Belfast

N5 Stroudsburg - closed
N6 Mt. Pocono now Swiftwater

P2 Dushore now Laporte
P3 might have been Sayre

R2 might have been Daleville
R4 Milford then Lords Valley now Blooming Grove
R5 New Milford now Gibson

T7 Plymouth Meeting now King of Prussia
