Gulf Wind in Florida, 40s-50s
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, May 20, 2006 9:43 PM
Hi all, please forgive a newbie question on a very particular subject. I'm really interested in modeling the Gulf Wind passenger train jointly run by the L&N and Seaboard Air Line between New Orleans and Jacksonville. I'm particularly interested in modeling the Pensacola - Tallahassee portion, including the transfer between the two railroads at Chattahoochee, in the late 40s or early 50s. I would really appreciate any information or weblinks anyone could provide, particularly regarding the engines each railroad used, whether they ran joint pools, etc. I have some basic information from timetables on the types of passenger cars so that's a start.
