Hopefully someone locally can give more info. If I remember corectly, the Tropicana OJ (hold the Simpson)train was ran on CSX and/or NS lines. Maybe contact there websites,or try to call them directly. I saw this train on Tracks Ahead on PBS....It seemed too good to be true!!
Good luck & have fun!!

I lived in Florida a couple of years ago and the OJ train operated on CSX through Jacksonville. At that time it usually came through late afternoon. "Trains" had an article on it during the last couple of years so if you have back issues (or a good library) you might look for information there.
