Anyone know any books...


Thats Shelby Railroad Services. SRR Company was a small railroad that was the first to connect Shelbyville KY to Louisville around 1850's. Southern Pacific now owns the line but thought it would be cool to read up on it. I live around a very large tunnel for the time the company built. Only thing i have found is some land deeds of the original line and some papers from the 1887 Oct supreme court cases. Like on pg 676 it was incorperated at 50$ a share in 1851 and by 1887 it was pretty much dead w/ many pending lawsuits.http://books.google.com/books?id=bvUGAAAAYAAJ&pg=RA1-PA676&lpg=RA1-PA676&dq=shelby+railroad+company&source=web&ots=ITHe-_yktT&sig=-onQEvqNh_X0905KxgqAqzhpXvI&hl=en#PRA1-PA676,M1 I know the chances are slim on such a non important line but it didn't hurt to ask.=)
