Duck River Valley Narrow Gauge Railway

The Duck River Valley Narrow Gauge Railway was a narrow gauge railway that connected the cities of Columbia, Lewisburg, and Fayetteville, Tennessee along the Duck River.

Chartered on November 4, 1870,[1] construction began from Columbia southward, with the line to Lewisburg opening in 1877.

It assumed full control of the line in 1888, and converted it to standard gauge.

Union Station in Columbia was built to serve the line.

Both it and the Belfast Railroad Depot are on the National Register of Historic Places.
