Built primarily for shipping logs, the Mount Mitchell Railroad was noexception.Within a span of 2l miles, the road climbed 3,500 feet, but utilized only threetrestles and nine switchbacks, while maintaining a grade of five and a halfpercent. In this richly illustrated work the author brings to life a time whenMount Mitchell was dressed in virgin timber. Access to the mountain, located in WesternNorth Carolina, was slow and difficult; but after completion of therailroad, a timbering industry was born.The railroad also provided tourists with scenic trips along its ruggedcontours. When passenger service was discontinued, a motor toll road was builtover much of the same route. Its completion marked the first time visitorscould travel to Mount Mitchell using their automobiles.Softbound, 6x9, 96 pages, several b&w photos in text and a PhotoAlbum is also included.Visit our store to view other books ofinterest.
