Cancel for June 22: Western New York and Pennsylvania Railway

W. N. Y & P. Ry.
JUN
22
1899
J.  F.  R.

Incorporated in 1887 as the Western New York and Pennsylvania Railroad, the company was reorganized in 1895 with the Railway name.  The WNY&P Railway's independence was shortlived.  By 1900, soon after this stamp was cancelled, the Pennyslvania Railroad took over the railroad.
