Augusta and Florida Railway

Former American railroad company From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Augusta and Florida Railway (A&F) was incorporated in 1904 and operated a line between Keysville and Midville, Georgia, USA.[1] The railway company was chartered on November 16, 1904, with an initial capital stock of $1 million to build about 60 miles (97 km) of line from Augusta to Midville.[2] Construction began soon after incorporation with 16 miles (26 km) of track completed by December 1904.[3] The A&F was sold in pieces to the Georgia and Florida Railway in 1907 and 1910.[1][4][5][6][7] Several lines in and around Augusta made connections to the line in 1907 in association with the Georgia & Florida purchase.[8]
