The Caldwell County Railroad is a Class III shortline railroad operating over between Hickory and Lenoir, North Carolina. The CWCY is operated by Southeast Shortlines, Inc., which also operates the Thermal Belt Railway. ==History== The Caldwell County Railroad was formed in 1994 when Norfolk Southern sold the line from Hickory to Lenoir to the Caldwell County Economic Development Commission (CCEDC). The CCEDC subsequently leased the line to the Caldwell County Railroad Company, a subsidiary of Southeast Shortlines Inc.〔(Caldwell County Railroad ), ''Railway Association of North Carolina'' (retrieved 16 June 2014)〕 The line was originally constructed as gauge in 1874, under the charter of the Chester & Lenoir. The line was part of the subsequent reorganization into the Carolina & North-Western Railway in 1897, which was absorbed into the Southern Railway around 1940.〔(South Carolina Railroads/ Carolina & Northwestern Railway ), ''Carolana.com'' (retrieved 16 June 2014)〕 As part of the Thoroughbred Shortline Program, the line was spun off to the Carolina and Northwestern Railroad, which operated the line from 1990 to 1994. On March 21, 2007, the CWCY filed a request with the Surface Transportation Board to abandon of its line near Lenoir to near Valmead. The request was approved on July 9, 2007.〔(Surface Transportation Board Decision Document ), ''Surface Transportation Board'' (retrieved June 16, 2014)〕
