Description
The Sandersville Railroad (SAN) was chartered in 1893 as a subsidiary of the Central of Georgia Railroad to run from a connection of that railroad in Tennille to Sandersville. It was extended north five miles from Sandersville to a kaolin mine and processing plants near Deepstep, GA.
Nicknamed The Kaolin Road, the Sandersville operates nine route miles along with two branch lines. The company rosters four SW500s, one MP15DC and two slug units which they call boosters.
SAN #1400 is an EMD SW1500 built in 1970 for the Illinois Terminal Railroad
