Railroad Main Artery Of City Industry
Thomasville grew around the Southern Railroad with trains every hour shaping its industry and growth. John W. Thomas championed a state owned line linking Wilmington to Charlotte, and the 1855 arrival of the first train sparked rapid development. Freight flows now rely on spur tracks and the High Point Thomasville and Denton line, while crossings pose dangers that residents hope to reduce by future undergrounding.
