Pensacola & Mobile

The road was chartered in February of 1861 and immediately bought out the just-completed Perdido & Junction Railroad. The road ran from new saw mills and turpentine stills on and near the Perdido River to a junction with the Florida & Alabama (of Florida) Railroad about 14 miles north of Pensacola. All machinery, rolling stock and rails were seized by the Confederate government for use on more important roads.
