From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Carolina Coastal Railway (AAR reporting marks CLNA) is a Class III shortline railroad.

CLNA operates 17 miles of line from Pinetown to Belhaven, North Carolina. CLNA interchanges with Norfolk Southern at Pinetown.

CLNA was created in 1989 as part of the "Thoroughbred Shortline Program" and was a subsidiary of Rail Link, Inc., which became a subsidiary of Genesee and Wyoming in 1995. The line was acquired by Main Line Rail Management, Inc. in 2003.

On March 25th, 2007, Carolina Coastal Railway entered into a lease agreement with Norfolk Southern for the Plymouth-Raleigh route (part of the original Norfolk Southern's mainline), 150+ miles long.
