1742-599: The 180-odd miles (290 km) to its second namesake city of Nashville . There were about 250 miles (400 km) of track in the system by the outbreak of the Civil War, and its strategic location, spanning the Union / Confederate lines, made it of great interest to both governments. During the Civil War, different parts of the network were pressed into service by both armies at various times, and considerable damage from wear, battle, and sabotage occurred. (For example, during

1809-481: The 1980s which led to continual successors. By the end of 1970, L&N operated 6,063 miles (9,757 km) of road on 10,051 miles (16,176 km) of track, not including the Carrollton Railroad.

With over 100 employees and 10 physicians, Satilla Regional Medical Center

1943-667: The Civil War. In the postwar period, the line shifted gradually to diesel power, and the new streamlined engines pulled some of the most elegant passenger trains of the last great age of passenger rail, such as the Dixie Flyer , the Humming Bird , and the Pan-American . Though well past its 100th anniversary, the line was still growing. The railroad retired its last steam locomotive, a J-4 class 2-8-2 Mikado #1882, from active service on January 28, 1957. Also in that year,

2010-614: The Dothan Subdivision continue to operate, including loaded and empty unit grain to and from the feed mills located in Troy, Banks, Pinckard, and Enterprise (via Waterford).

2144-476: The L&N to its rival Atlantic Coast Line Railroad , but that company did not attempt to control L&N operations, and for many decades there were no consequences of this change. The L&N also attempted an expansion into foreign trade, through investments into the Export Coal Company, and the creation of a wholly owned subsidiary the "Gulf Transit Company" in 1895. This operated three ships,

2211-684: The SF&W then built the Chattahoochee Branch in 1882 from Climax southwest to the Florida state line. Plant then chartered the Chattahoochee and East Pass Railroad (which had been chartered 1881) to continue the branch to the Chattahoochee River at River Junction, a hamlet which later came to be known as Chattahoochee, Florida . In 1887, the SF&W began building a 36-acre yard in Waycross. In March 1887

2278-640: The Seaboard Air Line's method of naming their lines as subdivisions. As a result, the Waycross—Thomasville Line was renamed by the company to the Thomasville Subdivision east of Thomasville, and the Dothan Subdivision west of there (as it is today). The branch to Chattahoochee became the Chattahoochee Subdivision. The Seaboard Coast Line continued passenger service on the line including the South Wind until May of 1971, when

2345-736: The Seaboard Coast Line had absorbed the Louisville & Nashville Railroad entirely. Then in 1986, the Seaboard System merged with the C&;O and B&O (known as the Chessie System ) and the combined company became CSX Transportation (CSX), which now owns and operates all of the former Louisville and Nashville lines. Its first line extended barely south of Louisville, Kentucky , and it took until 1859 to span

2412-600: The Seaboard Coast Line's passenger services were taken over by Amtrak . Amtrak continued to operate the South Wind until November 14, 1971, when Amtrak renamed the train the Floridian and reduced it to a two-night schedule. Passenger service was ended on the line when Amtrak discontinued the Floridian in 1979 as part of the Federal budget cuts that year that impacted several major Amtrak routes. In 1978, Waycross Yard

2479-399: The Seaboard System merged into the C&O / B&O combined system known as the Chessie System . The combined company became CSX Transportation (CSX), which now owns and operates all of the former Louisville and Nashville lines, except for some routes abandoned or sold off. Several historical groups and publications devoted to the line exist, and L&N equipment is well represented in

Reynolds (1953), expanding the government's state secrets privilege. During the 1950s the city had a tourist gimmick: local police would stop motorists with out-of-state license plates and escort them to downtown Waycross. There they would be met by the Welcome World Committee and given overnight lodging, dinner and

2613-409: The Waycross—Montgomery Line continued west to Bainbridge , where it turned northwest and continued across the Chattahoochee River and into Alabama . In Alabama, it largely kept a northwest trajectory and passed through Dothan before reaching its terminus in Montgomery . Since it spanned such a great distance, the segment from Waycross to Thomasville was within the company's Waycross District and

2680-410: The basic ingredients of steel production. The arrival of L&N transport and investment capital helped create a great industrial city and the South's first postwar urban success story. The railroad's access to good coal enabled it to claim for a few years starting in 1940 the nation's longest unrefuelled run, about 490 miles (790 km) from Louisville to Montgomery, Alabama . In the Gilded Age of

2747-404: The city wanted to take action to reduce the amount of human generated trash entering the Satilla River and ultimately the Atlantic Ocean . Georgia Governor Sonny Perdue said, "Water is one of Georgia's most important and precious resources... the litter trap installed by Waycross is a model of stewardship for the state and the nation." The Satilla River litter trap is the first in Georgia and only

It was renamed Tebeauville in 1857, incorporated under that name in 1866, and designated county seat of Ware County in 1873. It was incorporated as "Way Cross" on March 3, 1874. Waycross gets its name from the city's location at key railroad junctions; lines from six directions meet at

2881-405: The city. The city council in Waycross opened municipal primary elections to white women in 1917, the first town in Georgia to do so. This action was taken because some of the largest property owners in town were women who wanted a say in how their tax dollars were spent. It wasn't until two years later in 1919 that Atlanta became the second Georgia city to do this. Georgia women would not get

After the dispute was settled, the engine was formally presented to

3149-425: The firm began an expansion that never really stopped. Within 30 years the network reached from Ohio and Missouri to Louisiana and Florida . By 1884, the firm had such importance that it was included in the Dow Jones Transportation Average , the first American stock market index . It was such a large customer of the Rogers Locomotive and Machine Works , the country's second-largest locomotive maker, that in 1879

3216-399: The firm presented L&N with a free locomotive as a thank-you bonus. Beginning in 1858 and continuing throughout its history, the primary repair shops for rolling stock were located in Louisville , Kentucky. The first shops were acquired from the Kentucky Locomotive Works in 1858. However, this location could not be expanded, so a new tract of land was purchased in 1904 at the south side of

3283-429: The great success stories of American business. Operating under one name continuously for 132 years, it survived civil war and economic depression and several waves of social and technological change. Under Milton H.

Numerous unit trains originating or terminating on

3417-423: The late 19th century there were no such things as anti-trust or fair-competition laws and very little financial regulation . Business was a keen and mean affair, and the L&N was a formidable competitor. It would exclude upstarts like the Tennessee Central Railway Company from critical infrastructure like urban stations. Where that wasn't possible, as with the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway (which

Growth of the railroad continued until its purchase and the tumultuous rail consolidations of

3685-404: The railroad industry consolidated, the Seaboard Coast Line absorbed the Louisville & Nashville Railroad entirely. The merged company was known as "SCL/L&N", " Family Lines ", and was depicted as such on the railroad's rolling stock. During the next few years several smaller acquisitions resulted in the creation of the Seaboard System Railroad . Yet more consolidation was ahead, and in 1986,

3752-588: The remainder of the L&N shares it did not already own, and the company became a subsidiary. Prior to the purchase, the L&N, like other railroads, had curtailed passenger service in response to dwindling ridership. Amtrak , the government-formed passenger railway service, took over the few remaining L&N passenger trains in 1971. In 1979, amid great lamentations in the press, the last passenger service over L&N rails ceased when Amtrak discontinued The Floridian , which had connected Louisville with Nashville and continued to Florida via Birmingham. By 1982, as
