Despite high social position and an excellent education, he shocked his upper-class associates by his conversion to the beliefs of the Society of Friends, or Quakers, then a persecuted sect. He used his inherited wealth and rank to benefit and protect his fellow believers. Despite the unpopularity of his religion, he was socially acceptable in the king's court because he was trusted by the Duke of York, later King James II.

  • Cardinal ROUTE GUIDE
    CARDINAL ROUTE GUIDE CHICAgo • INDIANAPOLIS • CINCINNATI • WASHINgtoN, DC • NEW YORK We hope you enjoy reading this guide and learning about points of interest along our route. It is written starting from the northeastern terminus of the train in New York and proceeds to points southwest and west, ending in Chicago. If you boarded in Chicago, just read the guide in reverse, remembering to look in the opposite direction if referenced. AMTRAK STATIONS are shown in all capital letters, as opposed to upper and lower case for towns and geographical areas through which the train travels but does not stop. The Amtrak System Timetable or the Cardinal panel card should be consulted for actual station times. While all service presented in this guide was accurate at the time of publication, routes and services are subject to change. Please contact Amtrak at 1-800-USA-RAIL, visit Amtrak.com, or call your travel agent for the most current information. Between the front door of America’s Eastern Seaboard, Amtrak’s famous Northeast Corridor, and the equally well- known delights of the Windy City, Chicago, lies the gateway to the American South and the unparalleled wonders of the journey westward through America’s mid-Atlantic and southeastern heartlands. From twinkling Northeast cityscapes to famous Civil War battlefields; from the Blue Ridge Mountain chain and the Shenandoah Valley to West Virginia’s wild and wonderful whitewater rivers; from the fabulous window on geologic history at the New River Gorge to the Kanawha River’s thunder into a 1,300-ft. canyon below; from quiet coal mining towns to the beautifully illuminated nighttime skyline of Charleston, the capital city, and on to the great plains and Chicago – the Cardinal takes you on an unforgettable journey through history and adventure.

  • HOMEWOOD, a GLIMPSE of RAILROAD OPERATION William A
    HOMEWOOD, A GLIMPSE OF RAILROAD OPERATION William A. James you want to see power, speed and action, look for a station near a junction point or an interlocking plant on a four-track railroad. IfA Such a station is Homewood on the Pennsylvania Railroad in Pittsburgh. It is a typical suburban stop, not unlike those on the Illinois Central Electric on Chicago's South Side or the Penn- sylvania itself along Philadelphia's MainLine. Passengers on through trains almost do not see it as they roar by. But to the commuter to and from Pittsburgh's Golden Triangle, it is a means of saving a good amount of travel time. In fact one train in the evening with homeward bound workers makes its first stop at Homewood. To the right of the station are some apartment buildings which are also like those seen in the outskirts of Chicago, Philadelphia and other cities. They represent the maximum in residential conven- ience, especially when the transportation factor is added. A play- ground for the youth of the district faces on the north. If one is interested in sports, one can spend time with profit watching trains and a good baseball game. A row of tall maples lines the west- bound platform just east of the playground. They stand quite majestically against a moonlit sky, sometimes weaving in the wind, more often still. Atthe west end of the platform the Lang Avenue pedestrian bridge crosses over the tracks and some of the best views of the trains can be had from this vantage point.

Wrabel A view of Parkton prior to 1912, looking northeast and showing the railroad station, since demolished. Source: HSBC collection, accession #P001185 Parkton is an agricultural community in northern Baltimore County, located 18 miles from Towson and 5.5 miles south of the Pennsylvania line. It takes its name from Margaret Parke, who divided the land she inherited from her father James Calder, and began selling building lots c1854. York Road, one of the first public turnpikes, passes through Parkton, where a tollgate was established in 1859 (in later years, there were two tollgates — one on either side of the railroad crossing). Farmers raised wheat, corn, and oats; bred cattle; and produced milk and cream for the Baltimore markets. There was also a grist mill (Roser's) and a small paper mill. The fortunes of the town rose and fell with those of the Northern Central Railroad, as described in this double issue of History Trails.
