At first the railroads were individually owned. After the Civil War the Southern Railway company turned them into one large system. This made Greenville easily accessible from Atlanta to New York.

Vardry McBee lured early railroad lines to Greenville.

The Greenville & Columbia passenger depot was located in a former residence at the corner of Augusta and Beattie (now Field) Streets. Its first passenger pulled into the terminus on Decemeber 8, 1853.
