Curwensville, PA: Lost/B&O/BR&P Depot

(Satellite)


The Buffalo Rochester and Pittsburgh Railway Company updated
[Some comments indicate that the bridge goes over the Pennsy.]

Today's David S. Ammerman Trail is built on the Pennsy RoW. The B&O's elevated RoW through town is marked by a bunch of abandoned bridges. The NYC terminated at a junction with the B&O after it crossed the river.

Because of trees, I had to guess on which side of the Pennsy bridge the depot was located. This aerial doesn't help much. I'm going to guess the west side.

Curwensville is on the branch to Clearfield.

Bonus: the NYC bridge over the West Branch of the Susquehanna River.


The Buffalo Rochester and Pittsburgh Railway Company commented on their post
Further down, the BR&P and NYC RR are connected with a bridge over the West Branch of the Susquehanna River.
