Due West Railway

The Due West Railway was a shortline railroad that served western South Carolina in the first half of the 20th century.

The carrier was incorporated and opened for operation in 1907. The approximately 4.5-mile route ran from Due West, South Carolina, to Donalds, South Carolina,[1] where a branch of the Southern Railway (U.S.) operated.

The Due West Railway was unusual in that it did not run on Sunday and it would not carry express parcels of alcohol.[2]
