• Our Coast: On the 'Old Mullet Road' 1942 (coastalreview.org) — Goldsboro appears here as the western terminus of the historic Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad, a key link that once connected local passengers and freight to Raleigh and major northern cities. The story traces how this “Old Mullet Road” shaped coastal economies, wartime movements, and everyday life, while also confronting the railroad’s role in enforcing racial discrimination in eastern North Carolina.
