The Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) was founded in 1846. Commonly referred to as the "Pennsy," the PRR was headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Pennsy, employing about 250,000 workers, set the standards for railroading in North America! PRR was so huge, controlling 10,000 miles of rail line, and having merged with or had interests in over 800 railroad companies, that it's budget exceeded that of the U.S. Government! In 1968, the Pennsylvania Railroad merged with rival, New York Central Railroad, forming Penn Central Transportation Company, and adding the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad in 1969. A series of unfortunate events forced the Penn Central into bankruptcy in 1970. The Penn Central system was transferred in 1976 to CONRAIL, which began earning a profit in 1981. The Norfolk Southern Railway and CSX Transportation split CONRAIL holdings in 1991.
