Driftwood Pennsylvania Railroad Train Station Depot Real Photo Postcard

The Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) Depot in Driftwood, Pennsylvania, served a vital role in this small Cameron County community, which developed primarily around the lumber industry and its connection to the railroad network. Situated along the Sinnemahoning Creek, Driftwood relied on the PRR for transporting timber products, coal, and other goods, as well as for passenger travel connecting residents to larger towns and cities. The depot's architectural style, with its practical design and small tower, is characteristic of many rural PRR stations constructed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
