Brief history of the line:

The Nashville and Western Railroad is a short-line freight rail operator that runs between downtown Nashville and Ashland City, TN. The NWR, a sister railroad to the well established Nashville & Eastern, was launched in 2000. Since its inception, the NWR, with the help of its public partners (Cheatham County Railroad Authority & TDOT) has worked hard to rehabilitate its rail infrastructure, increase its customer base and extend its service area westward (now 18 miles west of downtown).
