There are still tracks along the left side of the road, but a train would have a hard time using them.

| Al Pelham posted Credit Gary. Did an Ellijay search here and didn't see it. Still standing according to #1 son vacationing in the area. Gratz Myers: As long as it is kept useful, it will be maintained! Are the tracks all gone? Travis Gordon: Gratz Myers The entirety of the Old Line is intact from Etowah, TN. to Marietta, GA. CSX owns the small segment from Etowah to Delano, where ownership then changes to the Tennessee Overhill Heritage Association. From Milepost 339 (Delano) to just south of the 382 (Copperhill), it’s owned by the TN Overhill, and operated/maintained by the Tennessee Valley Railroad for excursion usage under the name Hiwassee River Scenic Railroad. From Copperhill to Marietta, it’s the Georgia Northeastern Railroad. The 13 miles from Blue Ridge to Copperhill are used as the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway. Blue Ridge to Cherry Log is used by a BRSR Rail Bike operation. Cherry Log to Whitestone is intact, but out of service because of the condemnation of the Turniptown Creek Trestle, along with the trackage being in very poor condition. Whitestone to Marietta is in regular service by the Georgia Northeastern for freight service. Dave Kell: Looks almost identical to the Decatur station. |
