Gulf Breeze (train)
The ''Gulf Breeze'' was a daily passenger train operated by Amtrak between Birmingham and Mobile, Alabama. It ran from 1989 until 1995. North of Birmingham the ''Crescent'' provided through service to New York City.
== History ==
Amtrak introduced the ''Gulf Breeze'' on October 27, 1989 as a section of the ''Crescent'' (New York–New Orleans).〔 Costs of operation were split between Amtrak and the state, with the latter contributing about $1.3 million per year. Annual ridership in FY 1994, the last full year of operation, was 7,737. In December 1994 Amtrak announced that the ''Gulf Breeze'' would be discontinued as part of a broad cost-cutting measure which saw other services eliminated or reduced. The last ''Gulf Breeze'' ran on 1 April 1995, and was replaced by bus service.
Later that year attempts were made under the auspices of the Southern High Speed Rail Commission to resurrect the ''Gulf Breeze'' as a Mobile–New Orleans service, sharing part of the ''Sunset Limiteds route. This was eventually realized as the ''Gulf Coast Limited'', a joint effort between Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana which operated 1996–1997.
