Lena (also called Willingham)[3] is an unincorporated community in Hampton County, South Carolina, United States, just east of Estill.

From 1899 until the 1980s, Southern operated a line through Lena and nearby Allendale, Tarboro, and Furman.

Called the "Southern Columbia to Savannah Route", the rail also ran through Barnwell and Blackville to the North.

Its primary purpose for Southern was to increase north–south passenger/freight traffic by feeding into ACL (Atlantic Coast Line) at Hardeeville for passage south to Florida or north to Charleston and other points.

[4] Finally, in the early 1980s, Southern abandoned its tracks south of Blackville, ending rail service to Barnwell, Allendale, Lena, and Furman.
