Abstract:

The merger of the Piedmont & Northern Railway with the Seaboard Coastline Railway brings to an end one of the most remarkable and interesting companies that ever ran trains in North Carolina. At the start of its career, the line was little more than a new-built country trolley, but in its maturity, it was deemed more of a financial success than any other electric interurban railway in the United States.
