Progress on Greater Memphis Greenline

The Commercial Appeal reported on Sunday that Shelby County reached an agreement with CSX to purchase 7.04 miles of abandoned rail corridor to be used as the first part of the new Greater Memphis Greenline.

In the comments to the article, someone posted an interesting link to the history of this railway line (formerly the NC&STL Railway). The part that was purchased by the County stretches west-to-east from Aulon Station to Mullins Station.
