The Georgia Northeastern Railroad (reporting mark GNRR) is a short line freight railroad which runs from the town of Elizabeth, Georgia (now within Marietta, northwest of Atlanta) to the city of Blue Ridge, Georgia. Goods hauled are mostly timber, grain, poultry, and marble products.
The Northeastern Railroad was chartered in 1870 by the Georgia General Assembly to meet this request by the state, and the new railroad opened its first 39 miles on September 1, 1876, from Athens, Georgia, to Lula, Georgia. A second line was opened in 1882 from Cornelia, Georgia, to Tallulah Falls, Georgia.
The entire main line from Marietta to Etowah is in use by three companies today: the Georgia Northeastern Railroad for freight from Elizabeth Yard to Ellijay, the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway (owned by GNRR) from Blue Ridge to McCaysville since 1998, and the Tennessee Valley Railroad from Copperhill to Delano since 2004.
