  • Rail Fmnt Catalog Visit
    Rail FMnt Catalog visit: www.RailFonts.com Thank you for your interest in our selection of rail fonts and icons. They are an inexpensive way to turn your PC or Macintosh computer into a rail yard. About all you need to use the fonts is a computer and word processor (that's all I used to prepare this catalog). It's just that easy. For example, type "wsz" using the Freight font and in your document you get: wsz 99999999 On the other hand, if you typed, "ZSW" you would get: ZSW 99999999 (to add the track, just type "99999" on the next line) Thumbing through the catalog, you will find that most of the fonts fall into one of three categories: lettering similar to that used by the railroads, rolling stock silhouettes that couple together in your document, and rail clip-art. All of the silhouette fonts fit together, so you can create a real mixed train. Visit www.RailFonts.com to order the fonts or for more information.

  • B-1 John W Barriger III Papers Finalwpref.Rtf
    A Guide to the John W. Barriger III Papers in the John W. Barriger III National Railroad Library A Special Collection of the St. Louis Mercantile Library at the University of Missouri St. Louis This project was made possible by a generous grant From the National Historical Publications and Record Commission an agency of the National Archives and Records Administration and by the support of the St. Louis Mercantile Library at the University of Missouri St. Louis © 1997 The St. Louis Mercantile Library Association i Preface and Acknowledgements This finding aid represents the fruition of years of effort in arranging and describing the papers of John W. Barriger III, one of this century’s most distinguished railroad executives. It will serve the needs of scholars for many years to come, guiding them through an extraordinary body of papers documenting the world of railroading in the first two-thirds of this century across all of North America. In every endeavor, there are individuals for whom the scope of their involvement and the depth of their participation makes them a unique participant in events of historical importance. Such was the case with John Walker Barriger III (1899-1976), whose many significant roles in the American railroad industry over almost a half century from the 1920s into the 1970s not only made him one of this century’s most important railroad executives, but which also permitted him to participate in and witness at close hand the enormous changes which took place in railroading over the course of his career. For many men, simply to participate in the decisions and events such as were part of John Barriger’s life would have been enough.

  • The “Quick Service Route”—The Clinchfield Railroad
    The “Quick Service Route”—the Clinchfield Railroad By Ron Flanary (all photos by the author) If you take a look at giant CSX Transportation’s map, you’ll see a rather strategic link that runs north- south through the heart of central Appalachia—western North Carolina, eastern Tennessee and southwestern Virginia. To the current generation of railroaders, the combined 277 mile segments include one from Elkhorn City, Kentucky to Erwin, Tennessee known as the Kingsport Subdivision, plus the line south of there to Spartanburg, South Carolina, designated the Blue Ridge Subdivision. But, to those who have sufficient seniority to recall big 4-6-6-4s on fruit blocks (often double-headed with Mikes), matched sets of gray and yellow F-units urging full tonnage coal trains along heavy steel perched high on granite ballast, or black sided SDs working the mines along the Freemont Branch---this will always be “Clinchfield Country.” The blue and gray-flanked CSX high horsepower hoods that fleet the ceaseless caravan of coal trains and manifests through this striking setting today are engrossing—but not nearly so as the days of allure and sovereignty —when it was the Clinchfield. Efforts to link the deep water port of Charleston, South Carolina with the Midwest through this mountainous region date to as early as 1827. After earlier corporate efforts to translate vision into reality had failed, a regional icon named George L. Carter would eventually morph his fledgling South & Western Railroad into the Carolina, Clinchfield & Ohio---with completion of the through route consummated by the obligatory “last spike” ceremony (with Carter himself driving it home) at Trammel, Virginia in 1915.

  • George L. Carter's Clinchfield Railroad
    George L. Carter’s Clinchfield Railroad: The Construction of a Monopoly in the Appalachian Mountains A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the University of North Carolina Asheville In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelors of Arts In the Department of History By Jessica Reel Lewis History 452 November 20, 2003 “Railroads were America’s first big business.’’1 Railroads operated on a larger scale than other businesses of the time period. Railroads brought progress to regions that previously remained isolated due to geography, they brought new products to these regions, and they exported products previously hard to transport. Railroads provided a journey to the future. The Clinchfield Railroad played an instrumental role in bringing the Industrial Revolution to Eastern Tennessee and Western North Carolina. The Clinchfield Railroad was comparable to the hub of a wagon wheel. From its hub extended the supporting spokes: the raw materials of the region, the untapped labor force eager for work, the ability to supply local businesses with raw materials, the transport of finished goods and the ability to attract new business interests to the area. George Lafayette Carter, the visionary whom made the completion of the Clinchfield Railroad possible, made the growth of these regions a reality. Most of the work about the Clinchfield Railroad has centered on its unique construction and the use of peonage labor in the construction of the line. Scholars have overlooked the idea that Carter and the Clinchfield Company worked toward the establishment of a monopoly in the Appalachian Region. I intend to prove that the company did indeed establish a monopoly centered on the ownership of coal producing lands and its ability to transport coal and related materials and minerals out of this region to industries that the company either owned or had a hand in the location of along its lines in both Tennessee and North Carolina.

    Whistle Stop Watauga Valley NRHS P O Box 432 Johnson City, TN. 37605-0432 (423) 753-5797 www.wataugavalleynrhs.org Railroading – Past, Present and Future Volume 30 No. 4 April 2010 Mike Jackson, Editor Duane and Harriet Swank, Printing/Circulation Next Chapter Meeting is April 26; See Page 3 ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Gary Price, Keeping Norfolk Southern safe...one tie at a time 2010 Norfolk Southern Safety Awards Banquet This journey began for me early in 2009 when the Production Engineer from Atlanta toured our gang and told me that he liked my attitude and my dedication to the railroad. He said that when I discussed railroad issues, that I "spoke from the heart". He then asked me if I was interested in taking part in the yearly NS awards event held every March in Norfolk. Of course, I said yes, because I knew that NS pulls out the red carpet for this prestigious event. However it wasn't until February 2010 that I learned what my duties would be. I had been chosen to take the stage and announce all the safety award winners for the entire Maintenance of Way division. The event was held on March 9-10, 2010 at the Marriott Waterside Hotel in Norfolk. Considering the fact that Suzie had never seen the ocean, I decided to build a family vacation around this event. So we packed up the car and headed east until we ran out of land, and we exited into downtown Norfolk. The railroad provided us lodging for the first night, and I checked into the Sheraton Norfolk Waterfront on Tuesday March 9, 2010, grabbed a bite for lunch then headed across the street to the Marriott to register, pick up my name badge and itinerary, and find some familiar faces in a sea of employees.
