Well, I dont have aline inparticular, and i was only around to see the last few go, but the steel mills in pittsburgh were served by tons of railroads. Most importantly B&O. On the side of The J&L steel mills former location, i see more railroad history than all the Museums i have ever been to. the most depressing parts are the old 1952 B&O bridge now turned into a highway overpass (you can see the old B&0 Signature on the pier!), and the Hotmetal bridges. but that brings me to a question... (You pittsburgers may know)Even though im only 13, I remember seeing trains make a sharp bend on the southside possibly going over to the old J&L mill location. Now, this may have been is mixed and bent memory, but i was wondering if anyone knows of maps from the 50's until the early 90's. <br /> <br />Long live the B&O! [:(] [:D]
