== Legacy == The Pennsylvania Railroad's physical legacy remains visible throughout Philadelphia. 30th Street Station, still one of the nation's busiest railroad stations, serves Amtrak's Northeast Corridor and SEPTA regional rail services. The railroad's former main line, now the Keystone Corridor, carries passengers and freight between Philadelphia and Harrisburg. The Philadelphia Zoo is located on land that was once a PRR station site. Remnants of the railroad's infrastructure—viaducts, bridges, and former rights-of-way—shape the urban landscape. The PRR's story illustrates both the possibilities and the limitations of the railroad era, a period when Philadelphia was a center of transportation innovation and corporate power.<ref name="stover"/>
