Descripción

Disbound wraps. 20 pages. Title on page 1. No stitching remains of the report. All pages are loose. A few old ink marks. Old ink name "John Baxter" top of the title page. A brief search on the internet provided no information on the Charlotte and Camden Railroad. However, most likely the name of "Camden" was replaced with "South Carolina" to become the Charlotte South Carolina Railroad Company. Construction began on the rail route from Charlotte to Columbia, South Carolina in 1847 (the year after this report). The Charlotte South Carolina Railroad began in 1852 and existed until 1869, when it was absorbed by Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad. The line ran from Charlotte, North Carolina, to Columbia, South Carolina, and was the first carrier to serve Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. The railroad was 110 miles (180 km) long and its track gauge was 5 ft (1,524 mm). (Source: wikipedia).
