This map traces the route of the New Orleans, Mobile & Chattanooga Railroad, a line built to tie the Gulf Coast ports to the interior of the South and to Tennessee River markets around Chattanooga. Railroads like this one were central to postwar efforts to rebuild and expand regional trade, and a route map like this shows how the lines fit into the wider network of Alabama and its neighbors. The company was later absorbed into larger systems, so its maps now serve as a record of an ambitious railroad plan and the geography it was meant to serve.
