Thread-topic: The Rumour Mill

From the 1913 Railway Review

It is reported that the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy R. R. has about completed arrangements to acquire control of the New Orleans, Mobile and Chicago R. R. [later Gulf, Mobile & Northern, later still Gulf, Mobile & Ohio] The Burlington tracks run as far south as Metropolis on the Ohio river, opposite Paducah, Ky., and the tracks of the New Orleans, Mobile & Chicago run northward as far as Middletown, Tenn., and the Burlington would have to build a short connecting line.
The New Orleans, Mobile & Chicago R. R., according to a rumor, is planning to begin work in the near future on its extension from Beaumont, Miss., into New Orleans, La.

If this rumour was correct and had come to fruition, the CB&Q tracks would have reached New Orleans. An interesting thought!
