Alliance, Ohio was always a railroad town. Located in Stark County and northeast of Canton, there were four railroads that crossed here including the Pennsylvania Railroad, the Pennsylvania's subsidiary, the Cleveland & Pittsburgh Railroad, the New York Central's subsidiary, the Lake Erie, Alliance & Wheeling Railroad, and an on-again/off-again subsidiary of the Pennsylvania, the Ohio & Pennsylvania Railroad. This postcard, postmarked 1909, shows the Pennsylvania's yard and freight facility once located there complete with a posing crew.
