West Virginia Central and Pittsburg Railway Company

Nothing so transforms a new country as a railroad. Country roads, turnpikes, highways, & even canals, have but little weight in shaping the character of a country compared with the power & influence of the steam railway. The West Virginia Central & Pittsburg Railway penetrated a country which was unsettled, underdeveloped, & practically untrod. The book provides the reader with geographic locations, branches, connections, investments, climate, water courses, coal freight, resources overlooked, etc. It also describes businesses that were directly affected by it.
