SUMMARY:An angry mob and a hollow tree: A look at Clarksville’s unexpected railroad history
DESCRIPTION:Clarksville has a deep railroad history\, and three railroads passed through town\, and the city also boasted a streetcar network. Despite the history\, the city has had a love-hate relationship with the railroad. Its first railroad was derided as “beginning in the woods and ending in a hollow tree.” When one railroad faltered\, city leaders regrouped to build a second railroad\, and the outcome was a line named for three states it never reached. \nTodd DeFeo has written extensively about railroads\, authoring several unique railroad books\, including histories of the Memphis\, Clarksville & Louisville Railroad\, the Indiana\, Alabama & Texas Railroad and Clarksville’s streetcar network. His presentations include rare and well-researched anecdotes to bring the stories of those impacted by railroads to life. He is the owner of The DeFeo Groupe and the publisher and editor of Sightseers’ Delight and Railfanning.org.

SUMMARY:The Unexpected Local Railroad History
DESCRIPTION:Railroad history isn’t always like what the history books tell. Whether it’s the lines that passed through an area or the ones that were proposed but never built\, railroads are the story of the region’s transportation. It was a combination of railroads that made sense\, some that didn’t and ambitions that never made it to fruition. Still these stories provide a valuable insight into the community that was and almost was and provide context for the conversations we have today — and in many ways mirror those we had decades ago.
