Biographical or Historical Data
The Louisville and Nashville Railroad was the main north-south rail line through middle Tennessee, launched in 1850 and hence over a century old at the time this ledger was kept. The company was responsible for the building of Nashville's Union Station about 1900. Several books in the Nashville Room's Tennesseana collection document its storied history.
