One railroad company is stressing the fact that its trains run through his toric battlefields of ^Virginia, taking in a view th$ crater near Petera- burg and the fortifications around Richmond. Another company calls at tention to the fact that* the veterns who travel on its road will ride over ode stretch of 48 miles which was built by Confederate* soldiers, "and which has remained, perhaps, the most permanent monument of any work done by th?^ Confederacy/* It is the line between Greensboro, N. C., and Danville, Va. When the war began there was no railroad connecting the old Richmond and Danville with the North Carolina system of roads. A railroad official in sketching the situation, aaya the Confederate authorities saw the strat egic value of such a lint, “an^ were able to bring to bear sufficient pres sure to overcome the obstacles which had previously stood in the fray of its construction, owing to the rivalry of North .Carolina and .. Virginia, each | State seeking to protect its own rail* way interests." The rail necessary for the construe nection was procured by tearing other lines. At the doae of the war the 4M-mile stretch w*s confiscated by. the United States ss one of the of the Confederacy and there eras pro longed litigation before the and Danville received it. This section has been double-tracked but few changes were found “in the location as determined by the war-time engineers** . Reprinted from The Age-Herald, Birmingham, Ain., January 16, 1917.
