Английская Википедия:Berkeley Railroad
The Berkeley Railroad was a South Carolina railroad that served the Charleston area beginning in the late 19th century.
The Berkeley Railroad was chartered by the South Carolina General Assembly in 1892.[1]
The Berkeley Railroad ran from Chicora, South Carolina, to Moncks Corner, South Carolina, and connected with the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad at Moncks Corner.[2]
The Berkeley Railroad was built by A.S. Emerson, an early real estate developer who wanted to promote a development he called "New England City", in Berkeley County. Emerson built a railroad from Moncks Corner to New England City, which later became known as Chicora.[3]
New England City did not make it financially and was sold at auction in July 1906 to a local lumber company. It is likely the tracks and ties were then probably taken up.[3]
