While I was growing up in Wilmington, Elkton was the known as the hot spot for elopements.  The B&O had  a station in Elk Mills and AMTRACK still runs through Elkton.  You may want to look for info on the B&O and the Pennsylvania railroads in Maryland.



Happy hunting!

Subject: [MDCECIL] Honeymoon Express

Folks,

I have a reference to eloping couples traveling from
Philadelphia to Elkton to be married.  Reference is
made to the "Honeymoon Express."  Is this a mere
literary construction, or was this a railway or
something?

Details?

Thanks,
Vince Summers
