What would the first president
of railroad company formed
IN 1868 say to a present-day of
ficial charged with the 1855
operation of that same line?
Perhaps William H, Frazier of
Caldwell, first president of the
Marietta & Pittsburgh Railroad
Cos c & M division, would say:
Our enterprise was history in
the making"
And John A. Appleton, vice
president of the Pennsylvania's
Central Region now charged
with the operation of that
original line, might reply:
Your early work did pioneer
the early development of rail
road transportation, and did
pioneer the development of the
eastern portion of the Muskin-
gum Valley"
"Frazier's associates in that
early undertaking were William
Glidden, also of Noble county;
William G Okey, w. P. Cutler,
and r. r. Dawes, all of Wash
ington county.
Dawes, Civil War general, is
an ancestor of Charles G. Dawes
who served as vice president of
the United States under Presi-
dent Calvin Coolidge.
The original corporators then
named Isaac Morton, Thomas
Greene, and William Lawrence,
all of Guernsey county, as ad-
ditional members of the board
of directors.
Appleton, who spoke before
the annual meeting of the Mari
eta Chamber of Commerce Feb.
p, might even hear from Frazier
that the original road was in
corporated for 100000, and that
$1,500.000 was borrowed, and
that the road was to cost $1,000
Il nllIG.
Frazier, then, would be sur
prised to hear that his original
figures would today purchase
only three Disel units.
In 1873 the line become known
as the Marietta Pittsburgh and
Cleveland Railroad Company
and was operated as such until
1880 when it became the Cleve-
land & Marietta Railway Com
pany. 1t was leased to the
Wheeling & Lake Erie on July
Is, 1885 which operated the line
until 1900
The Pennsylvania operated it
on a lease basis from 1900 until
its decision to purchase the line
on June 80, 1911.

By 1870 the line had been COM
pleted to Whipple, and by 1872,
the communities of Caldwell,
Macksburg and Belle Valley
were being served. Cambridge
was next, and on May 25, 1874,
the last spike was driven at
Canal Dover, now Dover, in
Tuscarawas county.
Connection had then been
established with the Cleveland
& Pittsburgh Railroad; with the
Pan Handle at Newcomerstown;
the Baltimore & Ohio at Cam
bridge, and the boat lines at
Marietta.
With the opening of rail trans
portation a magical effect seem
ed to sparkle over the valley.
Especially was this true when
the Pennsylvania Railroad start
ed to take an interest in the
Duck Creek" line as it had been
nicknamed.
New spurs into potential in
dustrial sites, and coal and oil
fields brought a new economic
life to the communities they
served, The Cambridge Glass
Works was started in 1900; clay
products were placed into pro-
duction at Ava, Cambridge,
Byesville and Newcomerstown.
Here, too, was opened an out
left for coal and oil resources of
Noble, Washington and Guern-
sey counties.
The earlier methods of trans
portation played large part in
development of the original c &
NJ line as OK teams were used to
haul native cut ties and timbers
to the right-of-way.
In 1870 the lines first loco
motive was ordered from the
Baldwin Locomotive Works ain
Philadelphia, 1T was completed
that year and shipped to Pitts
burgh from where it was sent
by river boat to Marietta At that
point it was hauled up the river
bank by oxen, a fire stocked,
and it steamed its way out of
town.
Today the Pennsylvania has
announced plans to continue its
Ohio River line from Powhattan
Point and contact with the c &
NJ division, an early dream of
those early corporators.
