Old 1957 railroad and highway map of Pennsylvania.
Please post a 1957 railroad and highway of Pennsylvania. Check to see there was two railroads that cross PA Highway 896. I saw a railroad crossing on that highway while we on our way to Morgantown, PA for the night back on June 8, 1957. Thank you.

Below is a link to a Lancaster County map from 1962. There may be a double crossing in Lancaster north of where PA 896 ends at US 30.

The topo maps covering Chester County in that time frame show only the Pennsylvania RR crossing route 896 at Elk View.
