Pennsylvania Railroad T-Shirt
Wear the legacy of the Pennsylvania Railroad, better known to generations of railroad fans as Pennsy. Chartered in 1846, the PRR built its core route between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh before becoming one of the world’s largest transportation enterprises. This T-shirt celebrates the company’s keystone identity, the Main Line, and a history extending from the Broadway Limited era through the later Penn Central, Conrail, Amtrak, Norfolk Southern, and CSX chapters.
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.
