Georgia Pacific Railway


Constructed between 1882 and 1889, the Georgia Pacific connected Atlanta and Greenville, Mississippi. The company was chartered December 31, 1881, consolidating the Georgia Western Railroad and the Georgia Pacific Railroad Company of Alabama. It was controlled by the Richmond and West Point Terminal Company and the Richmond and Danville Railroad, predecessors of the Southern Railway. Southern operated it after 1894.
