Memphis, Clarksville and Louisville Railroad

Memphis, Clarksville and Louisville Railroad

The Memphis, Clarksville and Louisville Railroad received its charter on January 28, 1852, from the state of Tennessee. The line connected with the Memphis and Ohio Railroad and the Louisville and Nashville Railroad (L&N) connects between Memphis and Louisville.

The railroad had a major strike in 1868 and closed for several days. After the strike, the L&N took control of the Memphis, Clarksville and Louisville Railroad.
