Best Answer

The Confederate victory at the Battle of Chickamauga in September of 1863 gained the South control of Chattanooga Tennessee. This was a rail center of tremendous tactical importance.

The victory was due in part by the fast transfer of General Longstreet's forces from Virginia to reinforce General Bragg. The South had a smaller railway network however they made better use of what they had.

The Battle of Bull Run, a Southern victory was due to their railways which redeployed many of Stonewall Jackson's men to the battle zone by rail.
