Flovilla & Indian Springs Railroad


The Flovilla & Indian Springs, chartered in 1881, built the line from Flovilla, a Butts County village five miles southeast of Jackson, to Indian Springs, a popular resort and early state park, in 1889-90. After the company was foreclosed in 1897, the line was sold and reorganized as the Indian Springs & Flovilla Railroad. Two locomotives and six cars operated over its 2.6 miles of track. It ceased operations in December, 1918.
