August 27, 1864---The Atlanta & West Point Railroad falls to the Yankees



AUGUST 27, 1864:   

The Atlanta and West Point Railroad falls to the Yankees. The Union armies enveloping Atlanta begin to move against the Western & Macon Railroad. If the railroad is cut, General John Bell Hood C.S.A. will have little choice but to fight it out to the death, flee, or worst of all, surrender.
