Woonsocket and Pascoag Railroad was a historic railroad that operated between Woonsocket, Rhode Island and Pascoag, Rhode Island, and its remaining tracks from Woonsocket to Slatersville are now owned and operated by the Providence and Worcester Railroad (). The Woonsocket and Pascoag Railroad was likely founded and constructed in 1891 and was later officially acquired by the New York and New England Railroad. According to author Frank Heppner, "the line beyond Slatersville to Pascoag was abandoned in the 1930s, but against all probability, the line between Woonsocket and Slatersville survives today as a freight branch of the Providence and Worcester Railroad that primarily serves a single customer, a steel supplier called Denman and Davis"〔Frank Heppner, ''Railroads of Rhode Island: Shaping the Ocean State's Railways'' (The History Press, 2012) pg. 81〕 in North Smithfield, a company which is now part of O’Neal Steel, Inc...〔http://onealind.com/121-year-old-metals-service-center-gest-new-identity/〕 ==References== File:Providence and Worcester Railroad Crossing in Slatersville in North Smithfield RI.jpg|Woonsocket and Pascoag Railroad tracks now owned by the Providence & Worcester Railroad in Slatersville near the steel distribution plant File:Providence and Worcester Railroad bridge over Route 146 in North Smithfield RI Rhode Island USA.jpg|Providence & Worcester Railroad Bridge near Slatersville over Route 146 File:Providence & Worcester Railroad terminus in Slatersville in North Smithfield RI at Providence Pike.jpg|Current terminus in Slatersville of the former Woonsocket and Pascoag Railroad tracks now owned by the Providence & Worcester Railroad 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Woonsocket and Pascoag Railroad」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
