At 9:20ish, The Amtrack uses the triangle shaped junction on the left to turn around. And at 14:45ish, Amtrack 29 and 30 The Capital Limited breaks off and follows the track on the left ones leaving Pittsburgh
At 7:29 it looks to be remains of where a station used to be - the tracks separate & it looks like where an entrance/exit lead up to where a platform used to be, i can also see @ 7:33 where a concrete slate/beam is poking out from under the railroad ballast which was most likely a support for a raised platform. The station most likely ended somewhere around 7:39 mark with another possible entrance/exit. Can anyone provide info as to what stop used to be located there? Very interesting to me as the New York Tri-State area has those kinds of locations along their passenger routes. In New York City and parts of New Jersey there are dozens of abandoned stations along the Amtrak, Metro-North Railroad, Long Island Railroad & NJ Transit Rail Commuter Lines as well as no longer in service right-of-ways from bygone eras all of which have interesting stories attached to them.
At 0:34, pier of Westinghouse Bridge. At 0:53, better view of Westinghouse Bridge. At 2:30, Edgar Thomson Works in Braddock. At 6:48, the Edgewood Club is the white building on right. Ends in Pittsburgh.
Thanks for sharing this video series, I really enjoyed it!

That was great! Thanks.
At what point in this video does Amtrak move off the NS Pittsburgh Line, or is the line at the station?
Its on the Pittsburgh Line the whole time.
Yep, that's it.
