1852 ENGINE WHICH FIRST CAME TO CHELTENHAM

Special thanks to  Louis Schmidt   for his kindness in donating this photo and comments to this web page.

As you can see from the note Louis wrote on the photo that he identifies the date of the coming of the train to Cheltenham as Dec. 1, 1852. Below are some sources I have found which dispute this view.

What is fairly clear is that the are was still called SULPHUR SPRINGS when the first railroad came.
