Description: "The Cumberland Valley Railroad ran between Harrisburg PA and Hagerstown MD, providing railroad service to the Cumberland Valley. One of the first major movements of Union troops to stage them for combat used the CVRR in early 1861. For each of the next three years, Confederates targeted the railroad in separate incursions."--Provided by publisher.
