That track has been upgraded! I remember the good old days of this line. Once saw and took pictures of a SCL GP-40 that actually came all the way down to Myrtle Beach one day.
Wow this is some great footage i,ve never had any luck seening that train when i,m passing through to myrtle beach maybe oneday i,ll get lucky do you or anybody have any footage of the pdrr train that goes through Bennettsville i,ve never seen that train either.
Actually 4002 before the G&O was purchased for the Penn Central in 1969. 3617's origin was with the Maine Central. It also spent time on the Gran Trunk.
ive seen that (black) lead unit this past summer when i passed thru nichols sc on the way to myrtle scared the hell out of me due to how close it was to the grade crossing lol
@CSX453 Past the drawbridge, there is no business in Myrtle beach. The only time you might see something would be if they were storing cars down there, but normally the cars are stored before the drawbridge.
Is this railway abandoned yet? I've seen the intercostal waterway lift bridge one time and saw the tracks overgrown by weeds as it crosses the exit ramps in Myrtle Beach
Wow! I got a heads up that a train was coming and I was waiting for it but it was having engine trouble and I didn't get to see it. Well, maybe next time. I was going to try and catch it in Conway. Nope. Not this time.
Hello RKWproductions Hat from for the trick of the road. With us in Germany this distance either would have been closed. Or the rails would have disappeared at the latest. At the latest with the scene in the wood where the camera exactly at the locomotive and the rail aims, I find the best scene is. Question still: Does the line still exist? Or is it Closed down? Nice day still
Hours of Mullins recently eating at Webster's Manor and to RJ Corman employees had stopped in and they were telling me they were still working to get the Line open and I'm glad they are had one of them even gave me a calendar so before we left I wish them good luck on the project then I said who knows I might be filming y'all's train soon
There is a lot of pressure by a local group which has met to get the CS running again. The CS says the repairs on bridges required by the FRA will be done soon. The local group has threatened to go to the Federal Surface Transportation Board which could possibly force the current owners to sell the line to someone who would get it running again. Hopefully some resolution will take place in the next 3 months. The CS has lost one major customer being the Santee Cooper Coal fired electric plant.

It's not abandoned, but the railroad is currently out of service due to track and bridge conditions.

No sir! but bridge problems. A committee is meeting to grt it back up and running!
where u from down there i went to school in chadbourn westside elem.
Wow that track looks like its in bad shape! Bet thats one hell of a ride but good video!!
does this operate around myrtle beach?
Wonder where the Gulf and Ohio got this GP38?
Hoping the railroad will start back running again one way of the other.
R.J. Corman has now bought the line and is working on the track. Hopes to have the line running again before 2016.
dang that tracks bent to crap rj do great job
id quit seeing i'd have to drive over that track
I don't see how those locomotives stayed on the rails @ 5:03
i love that horn
nice
I don't have any of the PDRR.
Holy crap! I thought he derailed at 5:00!
At 5:00 , they need to repair that track, before it does de-rail !

can you e-mail me a pic of that gp-40
this line is now own by rj corman and thay are rebuilding it
it might not run again because the power plant in Conway doesn't need coal and that's the main reason the train ran
Oo ok
