From Pittsburgh, PA to Baltimore, MD the route was widely used. "Records from the Pittsburgh Custom House, which kept track of all boats registered in the area, their destinations, cargoes, tonnages, and passengers, show that between 1844 and 1852 some 200,000 passengers left Brownsville and boarded Monongahela River steamers" (National Road Heritage Corridor).
