Le Pittsburgh and West Virginia Railway (sigle de l'AAR: PWV) était un chemin de fer américain de classe I dans la région de Pittsburgh, Pennsylvanie et de Wheeling, Virginie Occidentale. Il fut créé sous le nom de Pittsburgh Terminal Railway par le Wabash Railroad de George Jay Gould I afin de réaliser une extension vers Pittsburgh. La crise financière de 1907 ébranla l'empire de George J. Gould, et entraîna le redressement judiciaire du Pittsburgh Terminal en 1908. Le trafic direct entre le Wabash Railroad et le Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway via Pittsburgh devenait impossible. Le Pittsburgh Terminal se réorganisa en Pittsburgh & West Virginia Railway en 1916. Une extension achevée en 1931 permit un raccordement avec le Western Maryland Railway à Connellsville, Pennsylvanie. Cela forma l'Alphabet Route, une ligne indépendante entre le Nord-est des États-Unis et le Middle West. Le Norfolk and Western Railway le loua en 1964, en complément de plusieurs portions de l'ancienne Alphabet Route qu'il venait d'acquérir. Il finit par être loué par le nouveau Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway (WE) en 1990, juste quelques mois avant la fusion du N&W dans le Norfolk Southern Railway. (fr) The Pittsburgh and West Virginia Railway (reporting mark PWV) was a railroad in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Wheeling, West Virginia, areas. Originally built as the Wabash Pittsburgh Terminal Railway, a Pittsburgh extension of George J. Gould's Wabash Railroad, the venture entered receivership in 1908 and the line was cut loose. An extension completed in 1931 connected it to the Western Maryland Railway at Connellsville, Pennsylvania, forming part of the Alphabet Route, a coalition of independent lines between the Northeastern United States and the Midwest. It was leased by the Norfolk and Western Railway in 1964 in conjunction with the N&W acquiring several other sections of the former Alphabet Route, but was leased to the new spinoff Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway in 1990, just months before the N&W was merged into the Norfolk Southern Railway. The original Wabash Pittsburgh Terminal Railway built several massive engineering works, including the Wabash Terminal in downtown Pittsburgh, damaged by two fires in 1946 and demolished in 1953. The Wabash Bridge over the Monongahela River into Pittsburgh was torn down in 1948, and on December 27, 2004, the Wabash Tunnel just southwest of the bridge opened as a high occupancy vehicle roadway through Mount Washington. As of January 2020 the two piers of the long-gone Wabash Bridge remain standing. The line also had a branch to West End, Pennsylvania, that was abandoned in 2011, and a branch to West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, known as the Mifflin Branch. And it also has a small industrial branch located near Belle Vernon, Pennsylvania. At the end of 1960 P&WV operated 132 mi (212 km) of road on 223 mi (359 km) of track; that year it reported 439 million net ton-miles of revenue freight. (en) |
