Murray/Calloway County Transportation: Railways

KWT Railway
Murray's rail service comes from KWT Railway.  The line runs from about one mile north of Murray to Bruceton, TN.  The railway was built in 1892 and, at one time, was a major route between Nashville and St. Louis.

Murray-Calloway Co. EDC Railroad
The Hardin Southern Railroad, an excursion line from 1 mile north of Murray to Hardin, ceased operations in 2004.  The Murray-Calloway Co. Economic Development Corporation purchased the 8-mile track to ensure future development along the railroad.
