Tifton & Moultrie Railroad

The Sparks, Moultrie and Gulf Railway built a rail line between Tifton and Moultrie in 1897. It was purchased in 1901 and renamed the Tifton and Moultrie Railroad.

Between those two places the line ran parallel to the Tifton, Thomasville, and Gulf Railroad, which constructed a railroad from Tifton to Thomasville in 1900. The TT&G was intended to be a common carrier, while the T&M was primarily a logging road.

The T&M was abandoned, or made logging-only, in 1904.
