SOUTHERN RAILWAY
SYSTEM
Keeping pace
with the South
The first American locomotive'to enter actual service was
the “Best Friend’’ of 1830. Built in a New York foundry,
shipped by sea to Charleston, it hauled the first passenger
train on what is now the Southern Railway System.
Twenty-two hundred locomotives, some of them fifty
times as heavy as this famous pioneer engine, and 70,000
cars, operating on 8,300 miles of Southern Railway System
lines, are now doing the work that was begun by (he
“Best Friend.”
^ From the Ohio and the Potomac to the Gulf, from the
Atlantic to the Mississippi, the far-flung rails of the South
"" em reach across twelve states with 40,000,000 inhabitants.
The Southern serves the South—from the northern gate
ways at Washington, Cincinnati and Louisville — and the
western gateways at St. Louis and Memphis—to the
ocean ports of Norfolk, Charleston, Savannah, Brunswick
and Jacksonville — and the Gulf ports of Mobile and New
Orleans.
