This tiny town actually wouldn't be here if not for the railroad. A peaceful little community in Barnwell County, Hilda was founded in 1910.

It sprang up after the Atlantic Coast Line ran tracks through the area in 1897.

Hilda is an unassuming little place where there is plenty of wide open space and fresh air.

But come nightfall, there's a legend about a train that is heard in the distance. At first you'll hear just the whistle again, and again.

And then as the phantom train gets closer you can actually hear the sound of the engine and the train on the tracks.
