Savannah and Statesboro Railway

United States rail company (founded 1897) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Savannah and Statesboro Railway (S&S) began in 1897 through a reorganization of the Cuyler and Woodburn Railroad (C&W).[1] By 1899, it operated about 33 miles (53 km) of track between Cuyler and Statesboro, Georgia, United States. The S&S also controlled the Savannah, Augusta and Northern Railway from 1911 until 1916 when the SA&N was taken over by the Midland Railway.[2]

The S&S lasted until 1933 when it was abandoned; a stub at Statesboro became the Statesboro Terminal Company, leased by the Georgia and Florida Railroad (through the Statesboro Northern Railway) until its abandonment in 1950.[1]
