More than 40 landowners in Chesterfield and Darlington Counties, South Carolina have filed their inverse condemnation claims against the federal government. These landowners own land abutting a 12.8-mile right-of-way extending from Cheraw to Society Hill, SC.
The Cheraw & Darlington Railroad originally acquired this rail line in early 1853. The railroad was subsequently acquired by South Carolina Central Railroad Company (the Railroad) in 1987.
