Thanks, really appreciate all of the help and suggestions.
I thought about my plans and I decided I wanted more time with my cousins, so I cut short my time in Savannah.
As it stands now, I'll spend the 23rd and 24th in Charlotte, arrive to Savannah on the afternoon of the 25th via bus, and then the next day, continue on Amtrak heading to Florida.
The Charlotte -> Raleigh -> Selma -> Savannah route actually looked good, but since I cut short my time in Savannah, I want to try and get enough time throughout the afternoon and evening to explore the city a bit.
I also wanted to conserve some of my rail pass trips, so when I am back in the Northeast, I can use the train to visit some family further up north.
Thanks again for all of the help!

It's about 30 min from Raleigh, so not that far. You can take a 3:14pm train from Smithfield-Selma and arrive in Savannah at 9:04pm.
Not sure if it's worth it, or if they Greyhound might be better, but just thought I'd throw it out there as an option.
