Take a distinctive railroad story along for a day on the course. The Buffalo and Susquehanna Railroad grew from logging routes in north-central Pennsylvania into a broad network connecting communities such as Austin, Galeton, and Keating Summit with Buffalo and Sagamore. Its changing role, from hauling lumber to serving coal and coke traffic, captures decades of regional industry and railway development. This golf towel brings that history to a practical outing and suits fans of rail heritage and local stories.
The Buffalo and Susquehanna Railroad grew from logging lines organized by Buffalo lumber and fuel dealer Frank H. Goodyear. Beginning with the Sinnemahoning Valley Railroad, opened as a common carrier in 1885, Goodyear’s network expanded through north-central Pennsylvania. In 1893, several smaller railroads were consolidated into the Buffalo and Susquehanna Railroad. Its routes linked Keating Summit, Austin, Costello, Galeton, Ansonia, Wellsville, and other communities, carrying lumber, coal, and passengers. Extensions reached Buffalo by 1906 and Sagamore, Pennsylvania, by 1905; at its peak, the system ran about 250 miles between Buffalo and Sagamore and had more than 400 miles of track. The company’s business shifted from lumber toward coal and coke as its network expanded. In 1929, the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad bought a majority of its capital stock, and took over operations in 1932. The railroad and its remaining subsidiaries were formally merged into that system in 1954. In 1956, the remaining 97 miles of former Buffalo and Susquehanna track were sold to the H. E. Salzberg Company, which organized the Wellsville, Addison and Galeton Railroad to operate the line. The line was abandoned in 1979.
