Waycross Air Line Railroad
Originally chartered on October 24, 1887, the Waycross Air Line Railroad began operations between Waycross, GA to Sessoms, GA in 1890. In 1901, the railroad had extended as far as Fitzgerald, GA at which time its charter was amended for an extension to Birmingham, AL and it was renamed the Atlantic and Birmingham Railroad. That company was consolidated with the Tifton and Northeastern Railroad and Tifton, Thomasville and Gulf Railway on December 3, 1903 to form the Atlantic and Birmingham Railway.
