Rail expansion of Louisville and Nashville links West to Southeast
Rail circles anticipate the Louisville and Nashville system extending to the Atlantic coast by purchasing the Charleston and Western Carolina railway. The move could divert some grain shipments to Southern ports like Norfolk and Baltimore, with Charleston likely to build elevators while shorter hauls protect other ports from disruption. The result is viewed as a major shift boosting Southern port competition and accelerating Western tonnage growth.
