The Edgefiled Branch Railroad was a South Carolina railroad that existed immediately after the Reconstruction Era of the United States.

Charter

The Edgefield Branch Railroad was chartered in 1878 to build a line from Edgefield Court House, South Carolina, to extend to Trenton, South Carolina, where it would be able to connect with the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad.[1]

Name change

A year later, the company's charter was amended in 1879 to change the line's name to the Edgefield, Trenton and Aiken Railroad.[2]
