Railroad origins

Bradford came into being because it was an important junction on the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad. It was here that the line from Pittsburgh split into a northern branch that went to Chicago and a southern branch that went to East St. Louis. The trains took on provisions and changed crews here and some of the crew members found it a convenient place to live. [ [http://www.bradfordrrmuseum.org/index.html Bradford Ohio Railroad Museum ] ]
