== Greer’s Station ==

* Columbia Daily Phoenix, Saturday, September 27, 1873 [https://www.newspapers.com/image/72083720/?terms=%22Greer%27s%20Station%22&match=1]
** Air-Line Railroad notice posted that a schedule change would take place the next day, Sunday Sept. 28, 1873
** This change would have a passenger train leaving Charlotte at 8:36 pm to arrive in Atlanta at 12:48 the next day; a return train would leave Atlanta at 5:30pm to arrive at Charlotte at 7:39am.
** The trains would pass each other at “Greer’s station” [note the lower-case “s” — this was apparently not thought of as the proper noun of a town, yet, understandable as the station had not even completed construction yet]
** There would also be one mixed “accommodation and freight” train leaving Charlotte at 4:51am to arrive in Atlanta at 6:46 (the return was not listed).
** '''This is the first recorded trip of a train across Greer tracks: late Sunday night, September 28, 1873.'''
