PRR Muleshoe Curve ~ 1880's |
Description: |
Muleshoe. Here is a photo of the original single-tracked, double culvert under the Muleshoe Curve near Duncansville, Pennsylvania. It was taken during the 1880's. "The Muleshoe was part of the improvements made by the State of Pennsylvania to the Allegheny Portage Railroad in the early to mid-1850's. Sometimes referred to as 'the Road to Avoid the Planes' or the 'New Portage,' these improvements bypassed the slow eastern-slope inclined planes utilized by the Allegheny Portage Railroad. The section where the Muleshoe was located was opened on July 1, 1855 and made it possible to bypass Plane No. 8. The Muleshoe and the rest of the Portage Railroad were abandoned on November 1, 1857. The Eastern section of the 'New Portage' ~ i.e., from Gallitzin to Duncansville ~ was reopened by the Pennsylvania Railroad in the early 1900's. The culvert under the Muleshoe was rebuilt as a single arch in 1902, with Blair Gap Run passing under the roadway. This is still the same arrangement today." (Photo and text from the Allegheny Portage Railroad National Historic Site: 114925998531185) Note the photographer's horse and buggy! Photo taken from the Duncansville side. |

PRR Muleshoe Curve ~ c. 1903 |
Description: |
Muleshoe. Here is a photo of the double-tracked, reconstructed culvert under the Muleshoe Curve near Duncansville, Pennsylvania, c. 1902 "The Muleshoe Curve never reached the same amount of popularity as the nearby Horseshoe Curve. This was due mainly to it being merely a secondary route between Spruce Creek and Gallitzin. It was built in 1850's by the State of Pennsylvania as part of the New Portage Railroad, itself built to bypass the inclined planes of the Allegheny Portage Railroad. The Pennsylvania Railroad purchased the line in 1857 and promptly closed it, as the PRR had just completed its own mainline via the Horseshoe Curve. Between 1904 and its closure, the line was used by the PRR as a freight bypass called the New Portage Branch Line. After the PRR was taken over by Conrail in 1981, the Curve was permanently abandoned." (Text from the Allegheny Portage Railroad National Historic Site: 114925998531185) Photo Credit: William E Burket. |
