Bedford Branch
The Bedford Branch was a rail line owned and operated by the Pennsylvania Railroad in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania.
The line ran from the Morrisons Cove Branch at Brookes Mills south via Bedford to the Maryland state line. The PRR had trackage rights south to Cumberland over the Western Maryland Railway's State Line Branch.〔Pennsylvania Railroad, (1941 Division Accounting Maps )〕 Only the line from Brookes Mills south to Sproul is still in use, as a line of the Everett Railroad.
==History==
The Bedford and Bridgeport Railroad opened from the state line north via Bedford to Mount Dallas (at the Huntingdon and Broad Top Mountain Railroad and Coal Company) in 1871;〔, January 2005 Edition〕 the Cumberland and Pennsylvania Railroad built a connecting branch in Maryland.〔, February 2005 Edition〕 The Dunnings Creek Branch, later part of the main line, opened from Dunnings Creek Junction (near Bedford) north, through Cessna, to ore mines at Holderbaum in 1873.〔, February 2005 Edition〕 The Pennsylvania Railroad of Maryland was chartered in 1876 to build an independent connection from the state line to Cumberland, but it instead became part of the Georges Creek and Cumberland Railroad and later the Western Maryland Railway.〔, April 2006 Edition〕
In 1891, the Bedford and Hollidaysburg Railroad opened an extension from Cessna north to near Imler,〔(PRR Corporate History: Pennsylvania Railroad )〕 and completed the line to Brookes Mills in 1910. This connected it to the rest of the PRR system via the Morrisons Cove Branch; it had formerly only been connected via the Huntingdon and Broad Top Mountain Railroad and Coal Company.〔, March 2005 Edition〕
