In this video I revisit the mothballed and (hopefully in the future, reopened) Bishop to Madison branch as well as the old Georgia Railroad route from Athens to Union Point that is currently being revived as a rail trail.
The BtoM line from the bishop to farmington hasn't seen rail service in well over 20 years while the portion just out of farmington till the city limits of Madison probably hasn't seen rail service since either the mid to late 80's or early 90's.
The current owners are currently in the process of preparing to reopen the entire route from the present end of active track in bishop all the way to Madison.
The portion of the GA RR route in downtown Athens saw its last train in 1997 following the closure of a chemical plant which by 1997 was the last rail customer, the remaining trackage was ripped up soon after while the rest of the line from Winterville to union point was most likely removed sometime earlier in the mid to late 80's.
Presently the GA RR route from Athens to Union Point is being reopened as a walking trail
