This short line railroad was created in 2001 and is currently a subsidiary of Genesee & Wyoming. Primary commodities include chemicals, polypropylene, fertilizer, and agricultural products, amounting to 1,050 annual carloads.[1] In April 2011, the Three Notch was named as one of the three railroads to be purchased by RailAmerica from Gulf and Ohio Railways for $12.7 million.[1][2] RailAmerica was acquired by Genesee & Wyoming in 2012. HistoryThe route was built in 1901 as the Alabama and Florida Railroad consisting of {{Convert|109|mi|km}} from Georgiana, Alabama to Graceville, Florida. It was operated by the Louisville & Nashville between 1901–1982 and Seaboard System from 1983-1986. The section between Geneva, Alabama and Graceville was abandoned January 16, 1984. The remaining line between Georgiana and Geneva was purchased by Gulf & Ohio Railways on July 28, 1986 and renamed to the Alabama and Florida Railroad. The purchase included the {{convert|7.8|mi|km}} Andalusia and Conecuh Railroad from Andalusia to Gantt, Alabama.[3] The railroad to include {{Convert|86|mi|km}} of trackage was purchased by Pioneer Railcorp on November 23, 1992. {{Convert|36|mi|km}} of trackage from Georgiana to Andalusia, Alabama was sold back to Gulf & Ohio and named Three Notch railroad on June 11, 2001. This sale included the lease on the Andalusia & Conecuh Railroad.[4] The Alabama and Florida Railway connected with Three Notch Railroad at Andalusia before abandonment of the remaining A&F in 2011.
