History of the Terre Haute and Alton Railroad: In January 1851, the Illinois Legislature chartered the Terre Haute and Alton Railroad, and construction began in 1852. On March 1, 1856, the main line from Terre Haute, Indiana, to Alton, Illinois, was completed. In consolidation with the Belleville and Illinoistown Railroad in 1856, the name was changed to the Terre Haute, Alton, & St. Louis Railroad. With the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861, additional equipment, locomotives, and cars meant increased shops space, machinery, and larger workforce. In February 1865, the St. Louis, Vandalia, & Terre Haute Railroad was incorporated, and proposed as the new western connection, joining the Highland & St. Louis and the Alton line.
