Possible Vanderbilt Links in Western Maryland Coal and Coke Lines
The Western Maryland Coal and Coke line, long contested by Henry G Davis, attracts talk of Vanderbilt involvement to connect Cumberland to Pittsburg and Lake Erie. Rumors say a nine mile line Cumberland to New Haven Pa would join with the Prisburg and Lake Erie, enabling an independent system with Baltimore and Pittsburg. Strong opposition from Wheeling and Lake Erie and the Wabash-PittsburgTrana lingers, with Reading viewed as a likely buyer in control of Western Maryland assets.
