1955 GM&O Gulf Mobile & Ohio Railroad - stock certificate

Description: The Gulf, Mobile, & Ohio Railroad (GM&O) was a Class I railroad in the central United States whose primary routes extended from Mobile, Alabama and New Orleans, Louisiana in the south to St. Louis and Kansas City, Missouri and Chicago, Illinois in the mid-west. From its two parallel lines through eastern Mississippi, the GM&O also served Montgomery and Birmingham, Alabama, as well as Memphis, Tennessee. It was created in 1938 to combine the Mobile & Ohio Railroad and the Gulf, Mobile & Northern Railroad. It later acquired certain properties of the Alton Railroad. The GM&O merged in 1972 with the Illinois Central Railroad to form the Illinois Central Gulf (ICG) Railroad. In the 1990s, the ICG sold off various properties, and the remaining railroad was acquired and is operated by the Canadian National Railroad. For auction is a common stock certificate from the GM&O dated August 22, 1955. It is for 10 shares. 1955 GM&O Gulf Mobile & Ohio Railroad - stock certificate Click images to enlarge Description The Gulf, Mobile, & Ohio Railroad (GM&O) was a Class I railroad in the central United States whose primary routes extended from Mobile, Alabama and New Orleans, Louisiana in the south to St. Louis and Kansas City, Missouri and Chicago, Illinois in the mid-west.
