Book Description
Excerpt from Ninth Annual Report of the President and Directors to the Stockholders of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road Company The Winchester and Potomac Railroad Company are now engaged in erecting the southern abutment of the river viaduct, and in the graduation of their road through the town of Har per's Ferry. It is expected that the entire line, from Winchester to the river, will be in readiness for use during the present year; so that, in a short time, there will be an uninterrupted Railroad communication between Winchester and Baltimore, a distance of one hundred and twelve miles, on the most direct route to the cotton growing districts of Tennessee and the South West pointing towards the great Nashville and New Orleans Railroad, and aiming at very near the centre of the James River and Kenbawa improvements. The extension of the Railroad from Winchester to Staunton is all that is necessary to secure to Baltimore a large portion of the trade of the great valley and the vast region that lies beyond its western boundary.
