Brunswick & Birmingham Railway Chartered December, 1900, the Brunswick & Birmingham built a 42-mile line between Brunswick and Offerman in 1901-02. In 1902 the B&B purchased the Offerman and Western Railroad (Offerman-Nicholls), and in 1903 it bought the Ocilla and Irwinville Railroad. Also in 1903, the company built a connecting line from Bushnell to Ocilla and had completed a western extension from Irwinville to the Alapaha River at Crystal Lake. Although the railroad had progressed as far west as the Alapaha, it remained far short of Birmingham. The company entered receivership in 1904 and was purchased by the Atlantic and Birmingham Railway the same year. The B&B operated five locomotives, ten passenger cars, and over a hundred other cars, most of which were leased. 1904 map (124K)   Georgia's Railroad History & Heritage. Copyright, Steve Storey.
