The Little Saw Mill Run Railroad was a {{RailGauge|4ft8.5in|allk=on}} coal railroad in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. It was incorporated July 23, 1850, and opened in April 1853.[1] Originally, it was owned by the Harmony Society, and ran from Temperanceville, Pennsylvania on the Ohio River to Banksville, Pennsylvania, running parallel to Saw Mill Run[2] and Little Saw Mill Run. In an agreement with the {{RailGauge|3ft|lk=on}} narrow gauge Pittsburgh Southern Railroad, it ran dual gauge tracks. It became part of the railroad empire of George J. Gould, merging with the West Side Belt Railroad in 1897.[3][4]
