History
Craggy Mountain Line, Inc. is a non-profit organization which was formed in 2001 in order to acquire the last three miles of the Craggy Mountain line, an historic section of railroad located in Buncombe County, North Carolina. Craggy Mountain Line, Inc. operates approximately 3.45 miles of rail line known as the Asheville to Craggy Branch, which is part of the former Southern Railroad located in Woodfin Township, Buncombe County, NC. The line will be preserved in an operable state and open to the public. Historic railroad equipment has been acquired and is currently being restored to its original condition for display on the line. Since the beginning we have been diligently working to restore our equipment to operating condition, including track rehabilitation.
