Viewing Album:  1976-2014, Southern/NS Aiken, Bamberg and Barnwell County, SC
 
By:Randy Chassereau
Dates:1/1/1976 - 12/31/2014
Album Info:Here's a collection of photographs taken in Aiken, Bamberg and Barnwell counties. This includes the rail line that ran from Columbia to Furman, SC as well as the route from Aiken to Branchville, SC; the Charleston to Hamburg route. All or some of these rail lines are now abandoned and I've listed some information on each photo for reference. All photos were taken from public property. In some cases I used a telephoto lens. In many locations, the track was next to public roadways creating good photo locations. I hope you enjoy the photos.

Description:  NS 5120 is on the Charleston to Hamburg line at Elko, SC. This section of rail line is now abandoned from Branchville to a point east of Aiken, SC.

Title:  NS 5131
Description:  5131 is headed east on the Charleston to Hamburg line a couple of miles east of the Elko, the nearest town. Much of this route including this location was abandoned in the late 1980s; not long after this photo was taken. What is left of the route at Aiken, SC is now operated by Aiken Railway. Even though this was a direct line from Augusta, Ga. to Charleston, SC., the traffic on this route was light.
