PENNSYLVANIA - Harrisburg

 Harrisburg first gained importance as a center for riverboat traffic in colonial as days.  The capital's location was largely chosen because of Harrisburg's practical access to the Susquehanna River's shoreline.  The city played a significant role during the days of the canal system.  Today, it remains an important center of railways, highway and airplane traffic.  Thanks to Amy for the card.
