Petersburg Railroad

Petersburg Railroad — железная дорога в США между городами Питерсберг (Виргиния) и Гарисбург (Северная Каролина).

Дорога была открыта для движения в 1833 году.

В Гарисбурге дорога соединялась с железной дорогой Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad идущей к восточному побережью США.

В марте 1898 года дорога была объединена с другой дорогой — Richmond and Petersburg Railroad. После объединения дорога была названа Atlantic Coast Line Railroad.
