GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.

Wear a reminder of the rail corridor that connected Goldsboro, New Bern, and Morehead City. The Atlantic and East Carolina Railway began leasing the route in 1939, linking its identity to a line whose service dated to 1858. Passenger trains used the railway's name before that service ended by 1951, while later corporate changes carried the story forward. This pullover suits railway enthusiasts drawn to coastal North Carolina history and the evolution of its railroads.

The Atlantic and East Carolina Railway grew from a coastal North Carolina rail corridor first built and operated by the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad. Incorporated in 1852 and organized in 1854, the railroad constructed about 96 miles between Morehead City and Goldsboro, passing through New Bern. Service began around June 1, 1858. The line suffered major damage during the Civil War and was later rehabilitated with financing secured by a 1868 mortgage. After a lease to a predecessor of Norfolk Southern ended in 1934 following unpaid rent, the original railroad resumed operation. A newly chartered Atlantic and East Carolina Railway leased the line effective August 1, 1939, and passenger trains used its name; a daily Goldsboro–Morehead City service ended by 1951. Southern Railway acquired the lessee's stock in 1957. The Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad merged into North Carolina Railroad Company in 1989. In 1999, Atlantic and East Carolina Railway gained freight trackage rights over the former route. In 2003, the railway filed to merge into Norfolk Southern Railway, which was to be the surviving company.
