Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Louisiana and Arkansas Railway: Its Territory, Industries and Financial Condition, With Illustrations From Photographs, 1904
The strategic position of the Louisiana and Arkansas Railway is apparent to any one familiar with the resources of its territory, as the road forms a link between the immense longleaf pine forests of Louisiana and the treeless prairies of the West. Upon the completion of its Natchez extension, if not before, the road will form part of a through route from the Central West to New Orleans and a large amount of foreign business should result. Manufacturing enterprises of various sorts are rapidly springing up and their output, together with the agricultural products of the country tributary to the road, constitutes an amount of outgoing freight that makes the Louisiana and Arkansas Railway particularly valuable to its connections.
