The Laurens Railroad was a 5 ft (1,524 mm) gauge shortline railroad that served the South Carolina Upstate region before, during and after the Civil War. The line was started in 1854. By 1861, the 32-mile line was carrying 8,500 passengers a day. Among the line's presidents was Henry William Garlington (1811-1893), a planter who signed the South Carolina Ordinance of Secession in 1860. The railroad apparently went out of business sometime after the Civil War.
