Over the past 170 years, such sights and sounds have become common features of Olmsted life since that inaugural trip of a train on the first section of the Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati Railroad. Accounts differ over exactly when in 1850 that first train chugged its way through West View, but there is no dispute that railroads affected Olmsted’s development and daily life ever since then. Some reports say the first train ran on This right-of-way in southern Olmsted Monday, July 1, with a load of dignitaries, but Falls is where the first set of railroad other reports say that first train actually ran as tracks in Olmsted Township went into early as Thursday, May 16, 1850. Walter use in 1850. Holzworth, in his 1966 book on Olmsted history, wrote that “a small but jubilant crowd” witnessed the first train to pass through any portion of Olmsted Township on July 1, 1850. He wrote further: A brass trimmed wood burning locomotive with no cowcatcher or head lights, pulling a box like car piled high with fire wood, a small tank car as water tender, and three small open passenger cars with curtains rolled up and its seats filled with dignitaries, started from Cleveland and sped along at the amazing speed of fifteen to twenty miles per hour.

    Walter Havighurst Special Collections Miami University Libraries Miscellanea Collection 1776-2002 OVERVIEW OF THE COLLECTION Title: Miscellanea Collection Dates: 1776-2002 Media: Correspondence, manuscripts, photographs and printed material Quantity: Two filing cabinets Location: Closed stacks COLLECTION SUMMARY This collection contains correspondence, manuscripts, photographs and printed material by or about notable individuals in literature, the arts, and history. Several documents provide insight into the history of Miami University and many Ohio communities. PROVENANCE OF THE COLLECTION Many items in this collection were left to the Walter Havighurst Special Collections by the estate of Robert B. Sinclair. A member of Miami University’s Department of English from 1925 until his retirement in 1969, Dr. Sinclair made special study of William Dean Howells’ works, publishing critical essays on Howells. Dr. Sinclair died July 28, 1974. In a speech titled “A Collection of Autograph Letters” that is included in this collection, Sinclair provides the reason for his hobby, which is reflected by many items housed here. “A long time ago I thought it might be of interest to my students in my American literature classes if I could show them from time to time letters written by the writers whom we were studying,” Sinclair writes. Other items in this collection were either donated by other individuals or purchased by the Walter Havighurst Special Collections. Miscellanea Collection Page 2 SCOPE AND CONTENTS OF THE COLLECTION The collection contains numerous documents written by figures prominent in literature and the arts, politics, and history, as well as daily accounts of life kept by everyday citizens in letters, diaries, printed material, and other manuscript items.
