I'll quibble.

The Lincoln Highway at one time ran right up the main street of
Youngstown, so yes, in those days the West Penn Crossed the Lincoln
Highway right in the heart of downtown Youngstown.

Sometime in the teens or twenties a new straighter Lincoln Highway
was constructed which passed north of Youngstown. After that,
Youngstown was half to three-quarters of a mile from where the West
Penn crossed the Lincoln Highway.
