Description
Civil War timetables are uncommon and this is an excellent example of not only a railroad timetable from the Civil War, but one from a Northern railroad that found itself on the front-lines of the war. The B&O was the southernmost of the Northern trunk lines and the only one that ran through Confederate territory. It was damaged multiple times throughout the war by Confederate forces making this an extremely interesting piece.
