GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Keep notes, plans, and rail history interests together with a notebook inspired by the Wabash Pittsburgh Terminal Railway. Construction began in 1901, and passenger service into Pittsburgh followed in 1904. The railroad's story includes a downtown terminal, a river bridge, receivership, and reorganization as the Pittsburgh and West Virginia Railway. Its later connection with the Alphabet Route adds another chapter for collectors and railfans. This notebook is a practical companion for research, journaling, or recording visits to historic railroad places.
The Wabash Pittsburgh Terminal Railway was built as a Pittsburgh extension of George J. Gould's Wabash Railroad system. Work began in 1901, and the company was formed in 1904 by consolidating three chartered railroads and transferring related properties. Passenger service into Pittsburgh's Wabash Terminal began in 1904, with through trains to Toledo, Chicago, St. Louis, and Kansas City. The railway entered receivership in 1908; after a foreclosure sale in 1916, it was reorganized as the Pittsburgh and West Virginia Railway. In 1931, an extension opened to Connellsville, Pennsylvania, connecting with the Western Maryland Railway through other rail lines and helping form the Alphabet Route. The Norfolk and Western Railway leased the P&WV in 1964. In 1990, the lease transferred to a new Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway after Norfolk Southern spun off much of the former W&LE. The original Pittsburgh terminal was damaged by fires in 1946 and demolished in 1953; the Wabash Bridge was removed in 1948.
