Chattahoochee Valley Railway

The Chattahoochee Valley Railway (reporting mark CHV) was a shortline railroad linking a number of textile mills between West Point, Georgia and McGinty, Alabama for a total distance of 9.5 miles (15.3 km).

[1] Originally the line was constructed by the Chattahoochee Valley Railroad on July 2, 1895 from Langdale to Lanett, and was extended to Riverview by 1897.

Further expansion included new tracks south to Jester in 1899 and north to Standing Rock, Alabama by 1908.

[1][2] In 1932 part of the railroad was abandoned from Standing Rock to West Point and passenger service ended that same year.

21, built in 1924 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, is now on display at the Southeastern Railway Museum in Duluth, Georgia.
