Trafford history buffs will be able to view and discuss 120-year-old photographs on the area on which Trafford City and the Westinghouse Foundry were built, during a free program at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Trafford Council chambers, 416 Brinton Ave.

The Trafford Historical Society recently received the original 120-year-old photographs of the area that was part of North Huntingdon at the time they were taken. The photos once belonged to John F. Miller, former manager of the East Pittsburgh Improvement Company, said Andrew Capets, a historical society member.

Those attending the program should enter the building through the Trafford Public Library.

Capets said they would like to solve puzzles about some of the photos, including where pictures were taken and which homes still exist in the photos of Stewart Station.
