Abstract:
Five North Carolina railroads were authorized by legislation between 1829 and 1833. The last one chartered was the first to build. It was called The Experimental Railroad and carried heavy granite stones one-and-a-half miles from a Raleigh quarry to the site where the State Capitol building was being rebuilt after a fire.
