Unlike most railroads that were built by a specific company, the Western Maryland Railways’ largest growth came as a result of it taking over dozens of smaller railroads, each with its own stories that became part of the Western Maryland Railway story. Although the Western Maryland Railway was also taken over by a larger railroad, people still fondly remember “Wild Mary.”
- Read about the trick that the Western Maryland Railroad used to get into Pennsylvania without a charter.
- Discover Abraham Lincoln's adventures riding the railroad in both life and death.
- Learn how the Western Maryland Railway helped make one of the largest archeological discovers in the U.S.
- Discover how the railroad had the power to change the name of towns it serviced.
- Mourn as you read about the worst accident on the Western Maryland Railway.
Secrets of the Western Maryland Railway: Little-Known Stories & Hidden History About “Wild Mary” tells the stories of interesting people, unsolved crimes, and unusual incidents throughout along the rail line. These are the stories you won’t read about in history books.
From award-winning author James Rada, Jr. comes another collection of fascinating stories and dozens of photographs that tell some of the hidden history of a still-beloved railroad.
