Ocilla & Valdosta Railroad The Ocilla & Valdosta was chartered in 1903 to build a railroad from Macon to Valdosta. By 1906, the O&V had completed a line from Broxton to Ocilla and was constructing a line from Ocilla to Fitzgerald. It had acquired a Broxton-to-Hazlehurst line in a 1905 agreement with the Broxton, Hazlehurst & Savannah Railroad and had begun steps to absorb the Fitzgerald, Ocmulgee and Red Bluff Railway, but the company had gotten into a difficult financial situation. In 1907, it sold the Broxton-Hazlehurst line to the Douglas, Augusta and Gulf Railway. In 1908 its remaining routes became the property of the newly formed Fitzgerald, Ocilla, and Broxton Railroad. The Broxton-Ocilla line was abandoned in 1915-16. Most of the Ocilla-Fitzgerald line has also been abandoned. 1907 map (110K) From Official Guide of the Railways, 1906.   Georgia's Railroad History & Heritage. Copyright, Steve Storey.
