Book First Edition
Laminated Pictorial Boards. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 97 pages b/w photos - An informal history of the Dixie Line, an important component of the Louisville & Nashville. The NC&StL was chartered in Tennessee in 1845 and served the people of the south until it was absorbed by the Louisville & Nashville in 1957. The Chattanooga Division was built from Nashville southeastward through the rolling Tennessee flatlands beginning in 1849. Branch lines connect along its way to tap the rich resources of central Tennessee. Much of this line is still in use today by CSX. The Nashville Division extended from Nashville westward through Bruceton and McKenzie to the end of the line in Hickman, Kentucky. The trackage from Nashville to Hollow Rock Junction was the original Nashville & Northwestern, and was for years referred to by crews as "The Windy" because of numerous curves and grades. Just after the Civil War, the Nashville & Northwestern expanded into western Tennessee. A bridge over the Tennessee River at Johnsonville was completed in 1867, and the line was extended west to Hollow Rock Junction. Merged with the Hickman & Obion Railroad in 1868, the combined Nashville Division continued on west through McKenzie and Union City and terminated at Hickman, Kentucky. The Paducah & Memphis Division was leased from the L&N, becoming a dominant freight and passenger hauler by the 1920s. Author Charles Castner presents an informal history of "The Dixie Line" with detailed text, illustrated with many great balack and white photographs of steam, early diesels, depots and bridges.
