Members of the Bulloch County Historical Society gathered Monday alongside Gentilly Road to unveil the latest in a series of markers highlighting Bulloch County’s past. At the head of what is now a public recreation trail, the historical society dedicated its seventh marker to honor the Savannah & Statesboro Railway — a 32-mile railway that connected the two cities.The railroad operated from 1894 to 1933 and became an instrumental piece to commerce throughout the region. Towns sprang up around the track bed and many people, for the first time, were provided a way to travel to and from the coast.
