Railroads, St. Louis, 1860 Perusing the St. Louis city directory for 1860, one sees references to the following: P. .R.R. I.M. R.R. N.M. R.R. Pennsylvania R.R. St. Louis R.R. St. Louis, Alton and Chicago R.R. "P. R.R" seems ambiguous; it could be the Pennsy or the Pacific. The I.M. seems to the the Iron Mountain. BUT the N.M., if that is meant ot refer to the North Missouri, is confusing; the North Missouri ran Hannibal to St. Joseph. Any ideas?
