Lockhart Railroad
The Lockhart Railroad was a shortline railroad that operated in South Carolina in the early 20th century.
The Lockhart Railroad was chartered by the South Carolina General Assembly in October 1899[1] to operate a line from Lockhart Mills at Lockhart, South Carolina, to a connection with the Southern Railway (U.S.) at Lockhart Junction, South Carolina, approximately 14 miles away.[2]
The line opened for operation in May 1900.[3]
Lockhart Mills was shuttered in the 1980s, but the rail line had been abandoned before that. Officially, the Lockhart branch was abandoned by the Southern Railway in the early 1970s.[4]
