Florida Western and Northern Railroad
The Florida Western and Northern Railroad was a railroad line built by the Seaboard Air Line Railroad in 1925 running from Coleman, Florida (south of Ocala) all the way to West Palm Beach via Auburndale and Sebring (near Lake Okeechobee), a distance of over 200 miles. It was built as part of Seaboard president S. Davies Warfield's ambitious plan to connect the South Florida region to the Seaboard's network.
==Original Route==
The Florida Northern and Western Railroad began in Coleman, where it branched off the Seaboard Air Line Railroad's main line. It proceeded south through wetlands of north Central Florida in a nearly straight line down to Auburndale, where it crossed the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad's main line (the current CSX "A" Line). From here, it continued south, passing just west of Winter Haven and Lake Wales before passing through Avon Park and Sebring. Its trajectory closely paralleled the Atlantic Coast Line's Haines City Branch, which at one point ran from Haines City to Everglades City.
After Sebring, the line turned into a more southeast trajectory, passing Lake Okeechobee on the northeast side. It continued in a straight line southeast from here to its terminus in West Palm Beach. The line only terminated in West Palm Beach for about a year before it was extended to Miami by the similarly organized Seaboard-All Florida Railway, and further to Homestead and Florida City.
