CSPAN did a show on CVRR during the Civil War yesterday. Worthwhile. Look it up.

It's a decent book with a lot of details that nicely supplements the Westhaeffer CVRR book

I wonder how significant a portion of a person's income travel by rail was in those days.

I'd have to wonder how many people traveled more than a day's distance at all at that time.

An interesting point, indeed. I would imagine that as long as horses were still a primary method of travel, it probably largely depended upon how much a horse could tolerate in a day. For example , perhaps a horse could make the trip from Lancaster to York, Pennsylvania in a day, as its limit ?
