This work is not, however, an attempt to write a general history of railroad transportation during this time of national crisis. Several events important for railroad historians, such as the founding in 1863 of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, have been omitted. Rather this hook tries to establish a relationship between the railroads and the war, to note how the war affected railroad activities, and how in turn railroad experience affected the events of the war. It is therefore one phase of railroad history. Since the primary interest is railroads, not the Civil War itself, battles fought over railroad lines and junction points have also been omitted, except as they affected the function of the railroad in providing supplies and transportation of troops and other personnel in the various theaters of war. In general, it will be found that the period from 1861 to 1865 was an important one for the railroads, not because of any great expansion, but rather because of the general consolidation of gains made in the fifties, the experimenting with new and better methods of operation, the finding of new methods of economizing, and the growth in technical ability which enabled the railroads to handle the heavy wartime traffic. These factors once and for all established the railroads as an integral part of the American economy. On the other side, it will be found that the railroads, in their function of furnishing supplies and troops to the various theaters of war, materially affected the character of the war itself, and provided for the North a necessary element of victory.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eAll pictures are of the actual item.  There may be reflection from the lights in some photos.   We try to take photos of any damage.    If this is a railroad item, this material is obsolete and no longer in use by the railroad.  Please email with questions.
