Chattanooga and Durham Railroad
The Chattanooga and Durham Railroad was established in 1897 from the failed attempt of a railroad that stretched from Durham, GA to Chickamauga, TN. The 17-mile railway was used to haul coal from Lookout Mountain in 1894. The railway was built atop a range of hills and ran from the foot of Lookout Mountain to the top. The Chattanooga and Durham was foreclosed in 1900 and changed to the Chattanooga, Rome and Southern Railroad. The Central of Georgia bought the railroad the next year and ran it for another fifty years before it became vacant in 1950.〔(, RailGa.com. Georgia's Railroad History & Heritage. Steve Storey. )〕
==History==
The Chattanooga and Durham Railroad Company originated as the Chattanooga and Gulf Railroad Company in 1889. On Sept 1, 1891, Chickamauga and Durham Railroad bought out this railroad. James W. English, owner of Durham Coal and Coke Company that provided the coal, was the president of the railway from 1892-1900. The Chattanooga and Durham Railroad was finally established in 1897.〔(Chickamauga-to-Durham Railroad Line ), -Stephens, Waren. September 07, 1999.〕
