History

Constructed by Mobile and Girard Railroad (later Central of Georgia) from Troy to Searight between 1870 - 1891. The line eventually connected with the Louisville and Nashville Railroad at Andalusia, Alabama. The Central of Georgia became part of the Southern Railway in 1963. The Southern Railway became part of Norfolk Southern in 1990.

The Southern Railway sold the line to Southern Alabama Railroad on October 31 1988. The line was later sold by the Southern Alabama Railroad to Conecuh Valley Railroad after 1996.

The track from Goshen, AL, to Gantt, AL, was abandoned by the Southern Railway.

The Southern Railway sold 8.7 miles of track from Gantt, AL, to Andalusia, AL, to the Andalusia & Conecuh Railroad in June 1983. All of the line, except two miles near Andalusia, were abandoned by the Andalusia & Conecuh Railroad on October 17 1987. The two miles of active track are presently operated by the Three Notch Railroad.
