Military-Rail-History

America's Railroads played a monumental role in America's Victory in World War II, along with America's Automobile industry. More Americans were lost during the Civil War than in all other wars combined. Be sure to visit the many Railraod, Automobile and Civil War Museums and Battlefields throughout Our Nation. World War I's most decorated soldier, SGT Alvin York, left for war and came home on an Oneida & Western Railroad passenger train from Jamestown, TN.
