hc C X lx ah, v I -ti . Tia -a Fil . A ? ti. XX , .WY A '90's trallie problem revolved around the horses and bnggies on South Main Street. nieentennial edition of the Reporter, fonestoga wagon of pioneer days was used to deliver the 1V1any Indian trails led through western Pennsylvania. By packhorse and wagon, push cart or on foot, the pioneer made his way to VVashington. Conestoga wagons, or schooners, with their gleaming blue bodies, red spoked wheels and white canopies carried such special- ties as tobacco, seeds, and new clothes, but more importantly brought news of friends and rela- tives. VVashington became a manufacturing cen- ter for the Conestoga wagons, but as the stage coach made its appearance, the wagons lost prominence. In 1871, the first train into Washington was welcomed by a blaring band, while the last pas- senger train departed silently in 1956, without notice. The need for better highways was necessi- tated by the emerging Nhorseless carriagev which became prominent at the turn of the century. In 1900, the first brick road in the United States was laid near Wfashington. This area has been the hub of transportation since its founding in 1781. VVith the new inter- change soon to encircle our city, the future holds even greater opportunity for prosperity.
