Seaboard Coast Line Railroad Passenger Timetable
For decades, the Atlantic Coast Line and the Seaboard Air Line battled fearlessly for carrier-of-choice crown along the southeastern seaboard, as well as though traveling from New York to Washington to Florida. On July 1, 1967, all of that competitive spirit turned to collaboration when the two railroads merged. The following is the first timetable on the day of the merger, showing collectively the famous trains of both railroads, now operating as a singular transportation service.
