This map focuses on the New Orleans, Mobile & Chattanooga Rail Road and the lines that met it, a network meant to tie the Gulf Coast to the interior of the South. It was published in 1865, the year the Civil War ended, when southern railroads had been damaged by fighting and worn down by wartime use. Maps like this one helped investors, planners and travelers see how the routes fit together at a time when rebuilding and new connections were central concerns. Look at how the lines branch and meet, since the layout shows the ambitions of the region's rail builders as much as its existing track.
