Ogdensburg, Clayton And Rome Railroad

	Ogdensburg, Clayton And Rome Railroad Ogdensburg, Clayton and Rome Railroad was founded to compete with the Utica and Black River Railroad, Black River and Utica on April 7, 1853. Both railroads were to head from their respective cities north to Boonville. From there, the BR&U took the low route and the OC&R took the high route. Everyone was agreed that the region could support only one railroad, and before either railroad could be completed, the American Civil War, Civil War intervened. No portion of the OC&R was completed, but grading was commenced at various points. By 1856, work was suspended, and the company lost its charter in 1859. Route The chosen route is generally known to have been up the Lansing Kill Gorge to Boonville, then west of the Black River up to Carthage. Very little of it is known to have been built. Some cuts were blasted out north of Houseville, which were later reused by the Glenfield and Western Railroad. In Lansing Kill Gorge there can be found a "long embankment running across the Nigh ...

picture info	American Civil War The American Civil War (April 12, 1861 – May 26, 1865; also known by other names) was a civil war in the United States. It was fought between the Union ("the North") and the Confederacy ("the South"), the latter formed by states that had seceded. The central cause of the war was the dispute over whether slavery would be permitted to expand into the western territories, leading to more slave states, or be prevented from doing so, which was widely believed would place slavery on a course of ultimate extinction. Decades of political controversy over slavery were brought to a head by the victory in the 1860 U.S. presidential election of Abraham Lincoln, who opposed slavery's expansion into the west. An initial seven southern slave states responded to Lincoln's victory by seceding from the United States and, in 1861, forming the Confederacy. The Confederacy seized U.S. forts and other federal assets within their borders. Led by Confederate President Jefferson Davis, ...

picture info	Tug Hill Plateau Tug Hill, sometimes referred to as the Tug Hill Plateau, is an upland region in northern New York State, famous for heavy winter snows. The Tug Hill region is east of Lake Ontario, north of Oneida Lake, and west of the Adirondack Mountains. The region is separated from the Adirondacks by the Black River Valley. Although the region has traditionally been known as the Tug Hill ''plateau'' because its top is flat, it is not a plateau, but rather a cuesta, since it is composed of sedimentary rocks that tip up on one side, rising from about on the west to over in the east. It covers portions of four Upstate New York counties: Jefferson, Lewis, Oneida, and Oswego. Geographic scope The Tug Hill region comprises an expansive ring of rural and agricultural outlying areas surrounding a sparsely populated "core" region. The majority of the region's population is concentrated in villages that are situated primarily at the region's outer edge. Greater Tug Hill region The greater Tug ...

picture info	Railway Companies Disestablished In 1859 Rail transport (also known as train transport) is a means of transport that transfers passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, which are incorporated in tracks. In contrast to road transport, where the vehicles run on a prepared flat surface, rail vehicles (rolling stock) are directionally guided by the tracks on which they run. Tracks usually consist of steel rails, installed on sleepers (ties) set in ballast, on which the rolling stock, usually fitted with metal wheels, moves. Other variations are also possible, such as "slab track", in which the rails are fastened to a concrete foundation resting on a prepared subsurface. Rolling stock in a rail transport system generally encounters lower frictional resistance than rubber-tyred road vehicles, so passenger and freight cars (carriages and wagons) can be coupled into longer trains. The operation is carried out by a railway company, providing transport between train stations or freight customer facilit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
