Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio Railroad
(AM&O) was formed in 1870 in Virginia from three east–west railroads (South Side Railroad, Virginia and Tennessee Railroad, and Norfolk and Petersburg Railroad) which traversed across the southern portion of the state. Organized and led by former Confederate general William Mahone (1826-1895), the 428-mile (689 km) line linked Norfork with Bristol, Virginia by way of Suffolk, Petersburg, Lynchburg, and Salem. The AM&O was promoted as a trade link to the west, and further expansion was envisioned with the goal of increasing Virginia's Ohio Valley and Mississippi Valley commerce. It was heavily backed by investors from England and Scotland.
