Robyn Watkins General This was on the Greenville & Northern north of Travelers Rest to Cleveland, South Carolina. After the G&N quit operating the line north of Traveler's Rest, a tourist railroad, the Swamp Rabbit Railroad, operated this section of the G&N until it shut down in the late 60s. 9/25/2011 11:19:25 PM
