Conway Coast and Western Railroad

The Conway Coast and Western Railroad was a Southeastern railroad that served South Carolina, specifically the area around Myrtle Beach, in the early 20th century.
The line traces its beginnings to the Conway Seashore Railroad, which was chartered by the South Carolina General Assembly in 1899.[1] It began operation the following year and the name of the carrier was changed from the Conway and Seashore Railroad to the Conway Coast and Western Railroad in July 1904.[2]
The line ran from Conway, South Carolina, to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.[3]
The Atlantic Coast Line Railroad bought the Conway Coast and Western on July 1, 1912, giving the ACL access to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
