See https://nwhistory.info/articles/SWVA.php for a travelogue from 1855. It
is a series of stories from the *Daily Dispatch*, a Richmond newspaper,
covering the trip of seventeen members of the Richmond Board of Trade who
were invited by the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad to travel along the
rail line to both view the railroad and to see the country that it passed
through.
