Pittsburg & Shawmut was another in the pantheon of pocket sized coal haulers loading trainload after trainload of Pennsylvania’s finest black diamonds to market. Where is the “h” in Pittsburg, you might ask? The railroad adopted the P&S name in 1909. The city added an h to the end of “Pittsburg” four years later but the railroad refused to change it. P&S joined the Genesee & Wyoming shortline group in 1996.
