Central of Georgia Railway

Le Central of Georgia Railway (sigle de l'AAR: CG) était un chemin de fer américain de classe I qui débuta sous le nom de Central Rail Road and Canal Company en 1833. Afin d'attirer davantage de capitaux de la part des investisseurs, ce chemin de fer changea son nom en Central Rail Road and Banking Company of Georgia. Il fut créé pour se connecter avec le Macon and Western Railroad (au niveau de Macon, Géorgie) et relier Savannah, Géorgie. Cela constitua un lien ferroviaire entre Chattanooga sur la rivière Tennessee et des villes portuaires sur l'Océan Atlantique. Les travaux durèrent de 1837 à 1843 pour terminer l'ensemble de la ligne jusqu'à Macon, et jusqu'en 1851 pour achever un pont sur la rivière Ocmulgee. rdf:langString
The Central of Georgia Railway (reporting mark CG) started as the Central Rail Road and Canal Company in 1833. As a way to better attract investment capital, the railroad changed its name to Central Rail Road and Banking Company of Georgia. This railroad was constructed to join the Macon and Western Railroad at Macon, Georgia, in the United States, and run to Savannah. This created a rail link from Chattanooga, on the Tennessee River, to seaports on the Atlantic Ocean. It took from 1837 to 1843 to build the railroad from Savannah to the eastern bank of the Ocmulgee River at Macon; a bridge into the city was not built until 1851. rdf:langString

It took from 1837 to 1843 to build the railroad from Savannah to the eastern bank of the Ocmulgee River at Macon; a bridge into the city was not built until 1851. During the Savannah Campaign of the American Civil War, conducted during November and December 1864, federal troops tore up the rails and converted them into "Sherman's neckties." The company was purchased by the Southern Railway in 1963, and subsequently became part of Norfolk Southern Railway in 1982. Despite the similarity between the two names, the Georgia Central Railway has no ties with the Central of Georgia Railway.
