Wilmington and Conway Railroad

The Wilmington and Conway Railroad was a short-lived Southeastern railroad that operated in South Carolina and North Carolina near the end of the 19th century.

The Wilmington and Conway Railroad, created after the Wilmington, Chadbourn and Conway Railroad, was sold at foreclosure in 1895.[1] The following year, the Wilmington and Conway was sold to the Wilmington, Columbia and Augusta Railroad.[2]

The Chadbourn Lumber Company of Chadbourn, North Carolina, originally built the line to haul timber.[3]
