HUGE Thanks to my good friend SteelAndCities for his ginormous help in this video!!
Pittsburgh is a city in Southwestern PA and is most known for being the site of the Monongahela River and the Allegheny River’s confluence into the Ohio River. It’s the easternmost of the historically industrial midwest cities. It’s probably not the first city you think of when you think of commuter rail, because it’s mostly known for its light rail and bus network operated by Pittsburgh Regional transit, better known by their former name of the Port Authority. But, did I ever tell you that there used to be ANOTHER train that they had that didn’t quite go the way they hoped? Ladies and gentlemen, sit back and relax, as me and my good SteelAndCities friend tell you the story of the PATrain - Pittsburgh’s Ill-Fated Commuter Train.
