- Lot Description
Printed broadside, 9.75 x 6 in. Notice. Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad. N.d., ca 1864. Broadside text reads, "By a resolution of the Board of Public Works adopted on the 20th day of July, 1864, the tolls on freights over this Road were authorized to be ten times the rates of toll established by the Board of Directors on the 1st of May, 1861, which rates were by the Board of Directors of this Company adopted on the 27th of July, 1864, except as to tolls on wood, which were then established at eight times the rate fixed by the tariff of May 1, 1861. To take effect August 1, 1864."
The Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad was a railroad originally chartered on February 25, 1834, that connected Richmond, Virginia to Washington, DC. During the Civil War, the Railroad operated mainly in service of the Confederate Army, and took considerable damage throughout the course of the conflict. The tracks thus underwent many rebuilding efforts on both sides as rail travel became a crucial and effective method of transportation during the war. The Railroad continues to operate today as the RF&P Subdivision of the CSX Transportation system.
