Belt Railway of Chattanooga

[1] The railroad started near Warner Park and made its way several miles past the East Tennessee, Virginia line ending at Boyce Station.

The Belt Railway of Chattanooga was operated physically as well as financially by the Alabama Great Southern Railroad.

[4] An industry called the Montague Company originated on the belt tracks at Chattanooga, and consigned the loads of many of the cars that transported clay.

[5] The Belt Line continued in service after it was acquired by Southern Railway, but it ran for only a few years in the late 1880s and the early 1890s.

Today, the only visible tracks still in place can be seen at the start of the line at EPB yards across from Warner Park and a small section near Bachman Street.
