I lived in Valdosta up until 1994. I wasn't able to find out much. I do know that it was called the "Lakeland Spur" and it branched off of the ACL (now CSX) at Naylor Ga. I think they had one or two switch engines. I think it was finally abandoned sometime in the seventies. It was gone completely without a trace when I got there in 1982.
According to Wikipedia, the railroad wasabandonedin 1957.

Does anyone have information on the long defunct Georgia short line Lakeland Railway of Lakeland Georgia? Such as what businesses were served by the line.
