Robert Daly posted six photos with the comment: "Ridgway is another Pennsylvania town with two preserved stations. In 1905 the Buffalo Rochester and Pittsburgh (later B&O and now Buffalo and Pittsburgh) built a large station. Passenger service ended in 1955. The building is currently being renovated to accommodate a woodworking shop.
The Pennsylvania Railroad completed an elegant station in the Palladian style in 1907. Passenger service ended in 1965. The station was abandoned for many years. Local individuals and businesses funded a complete restoration about ten years ago. Unfortunately they have not been able to find a permanent tenant. The tracks are also operated by the B&P."
