In 1887 a small branch railway, which soon came under the control of the Erie Railroad (ERIE), was built along the east bank of the Shenango River from New Castle up to Sharon. The ERIE later entered into an operating agreement with the larger P&LE. A small freight and passenger station was established in Pulaski in about 1890. It was located on the western edge of the village and near the Shenango River. The ERIE merged with a rival railroad in October 1960 to form the new Erie-Lackawanna Railroad (EL). I believe the station in Pulaski was closed about the time of the merger, but trains continued to stop there on special occasions during the 1960’s. (c1908) |
