The former Central of Georgia "T" line from Opelika to Roanoke fell into horrible disrepair in its final years. Sadly, after shortline mismanagement, the scrap vultures have moved in for the remains

David Barrentine	General	What a shame!	12/29/2011 10:34:35 AM

Robert Farkas	General	In my area, this reminds me of the late, great EL. How sad to see this, and the crossbuck at the left is now a memorial instead of a useful crossing guard.	12/29/2011 10:56:01 AM

Charles Burgess	General	Wouldn't even know the railroad was there...amazing!	12/29/2011 7:31:37 PM

Bryan Smith	General	Vultures is very much the right word. A very sad scene.	12/30/2011 6:48:29 AM

As part of Pine Belt Southern, this branch managed to die a slow death as traffic either dried up or simply switched to trucks due to poor service. Regardless, another small town lost rail service as a result
