History & local legend
Pine Run Road in Luzerne County has a local nickname, Baby Road, attached to a story about a woman and infant. One driver described seeing a woman carrying a baby beside the truck as rain began. When the driver lowered the window to offer a lift, she briefly kept pace, then turned toward the trees and disappeared.
Farther along, the driver saw a baby lying in the road. After stopping and getting out, the driver picked it up, only to have it vanish too. Other versions of the road's legend emphasize the woman's old-fashioned clothing.
