Abandoned Pennsylvania Railroad 1907 Route West Penn Bike Trail Blairsville PA
Also Check out www.stuffthatsgone.com The 1907 Alignment of the Pennsylvania Railroad running through Indiana and Westmoreland Counties featured 4 beautiful stone arch bridges prior to going through a tunnel. In 1950 the Conemaugh dam was constructed to hold back flood waters that buried Pittsburgh in 1936. As a result this alignment had to be raised and moved to the south. The West Penn Bike trail was constructed a few years ago and when the flood waters are not over the top of the bridges you can enjoy a short but very visual ride. With the missing link bridge being finished later this year this trail will be able to travel for several more miles east. This section can be accessed from several points of US 22 East.
