Brunswick Subdivision
The most notable segment of the line still in service is from Waycross to Brunswick which is still operating as CSX's Brunswick Subdivision. At its northwest end it connects to the Jesup Subdivision in Waycross just east of Rice Yard. Though, track in Brunswick from Southern Junction to CSX's current Brunswick Yard was part of the former Brunswick and Birmingham Railroad. The Brunswick Subdivision was still not heavily used into the 2000s and only saw about two trains a day. As of early 2023, CSX completed a new connection from the Brunswick Subdivision to the A Line at Nahunta. This was done to take pressure off of the Jesup Subdivision by providing an additional route for trains from Waycross to access the Nahunta Subdivision. Continuous welded rail and a centralized traffic control signal system were also installed from Waycross to Nahunta to manage the additional traffic from this new connection.
