Description
Greenville & Western Railway crew on duty at 1600 hrs. on Sunday December 15. They'll leave everything in this shot at the yard and run light to Pelzer with the 3751. The Greenville & Western (GRWL) bought the former CSX line between Honae Path and Pelzer in 2006. Prior to that, this route was part of the Piedmont & Northern.
The Greenville & Western Railway owns and operates just under 13 miles of former CSX track in Anderson, SC. It is former Piedmont & Northern track (later Seaboard Coast Line) that was up for abandonment in 2006 when it was bought by the Western Carolina Railway. The Greenville & Western connects the small villages of Belton, Cheddar, Williamston and Pelzer and also gives the Pickens Railroad a second connection to a Class 1 carrier, CSX, in Pelzer.
The EMD GP9s are former Baltimore & Ohio Railroad motors.
