Travel with the spirit of Pennsy’s far-reaching network close at hand. The Pennsylvania Railroad began in Philadelphia and grew into a transportation giant whose routes connected Pittsburgh, New York, Washington, Chicago, St. Louis, Buffalo, and more. This passport cover is designed for travelers who value classic railroad identity, the PRR keystone tradition, and the romance of landmark services such as the Broadway Limited. It is an ideal travel accessory for collectors, rail historians, and anyone drawn to American journey-making.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company, known by its PRR reporting mark and the nickname Pennsy, was established in 1846 and headquartered in Philadelphia. It was chartered to build between Harrisburg and Pittsburgh, and a continuous Philadelphia-to-Pittsburgh rail route followed in 1852; its own line from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh was completed in 1854. The company bought Pennsylvania’s Main Line of Public Works in 1857 and expanded through stock purchases, leases, and control of other lines. Its Main Line connected Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, while later routes reached New York City, Washington, Chicago, Cincinnati, St. Louis, and Buffalo. By 1882, PRR was the world’s largest railroad by traffic and revenue, as well as the largest transportation enterprise and corporation. The railroad merged with longtime rival New York Central on February 1, 1968, becoming Penn Central Transportation Company. Penn Central rail assets passed to Conrail on April 1, 1976. Conrail was divided in 1999 between Norfolk Southern and CSX Transportation; Norfolk Southern received most remaining former PRR trackage. Amtrak received electrified Main Line trackage east of Harrisburg.
