Overview

This is a reprint of the 1874 ""Report of Gen. G.M. Dodge, Chief Engineer,"" documenting the progress and planning of the Texas & Pacific Railway. As chief engineer, Grenville Mellen Dodge, a prominent figure in American railroad history, provides a detailed account of the railway's construction, challenges, and future prospects. The report offers valuable insights into the engineering feats, logistical considerations, and economic factors that shaped the development of the American West during the late 19th century. It serves as a primary source for understanding the crucial role railroads played in connecting communities, facilitating trade, and driving westward expansion.
