Treasury Department: Journal of the Troy and Greenfield Railroad Company

Part of: Massachusetts Treasury Department

Journal of the Troy and Greenfield Railroad Company, 1851-1877 (Bulk: 1851-1861).

1 volume
Call no.: TR1/1413X

Scope and Content: The Troy and Greenfield Railroad Company was incorporated by St 1848, c 307 to build a railroad eastward from the termination of the Vermont and Massachusetts Railroad near Troy, New York to unite with the Connecticut River Railroad near Greenfield, Massachusetts.  Establishing this line required tunneling through the Hoosac Mountain.  The project was to have been completed in seven years, but the company was placed into receivership by St 1854, c 226.  Commissioners of a sinking fund, including the state treasurer and auditor and the treasurer of the company, were appointed for the investment, care, and management of the company’s monies.  A six-year extension was granted for completing the railroad but because of setbacks in construction of the tunnel, the project was not finished until 1876.  The property, known as the Troy and Greenfield Railroad and Hoosac Tunnel (St 1862, c 156), was consolidated with that of the Fitchburg Railroad Company (St 1887, c 52), although the Troy and Greenfield Railroad Company itself continued in existence to 1890.
