History
Bracey is located along a former railroad mainline. The Richmond, Petersburg and Carolina Railroad, passing through Bracey from Petersburg, Virginia to Ridgeway Junction (today Norlina, North Carolina), was completed in 1900, at which point it was merged into the Seaboard Air Line (SAL). The railroad constructed a depot for Bracey, which was still standing as of 2021. By 1914, the population of Bracey was estimate by the railroad to be somewhere around 200. The line (dubbed the “S-line” after later mergers) continued to operate until the 1980s, and today Bracey is along the abandoned portion of the CSX Norlina Subdivision.
