Seaboard-All Florida Railway

The Seaboard-All Florida Railway was a subsidiary of the Seaboard Air Line Railroad that oversaw two major extensions of the system in the early 1920s to southern Florida on each coast during the land boom. One line extended the Seaboard’s tracks on the east coast from West Palm Beach down to Miami, while the other extension on the west coast extended the tracks Fort Ogden to Fort Myers and Naples, with branches to LaBelle and Punta Rassa. These two extensions were championed by Seaboard president S. Davies Warfield (who died months after its completion), and were constructed by Foley Brothers railroad contractors. Both extensions also allowed the Seaboard to better compete with the Florida East Coast Railway and the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, who already served the lower east and west coasts of Florida respectively. Today, only the east coast route survives.
==Grand Opening Celebration==

The Seaboard All-Florida Railway's west coast route opened on January 7, 1927, and the east coast route opened the next day. On the opening days of each route, President S. Davies Warfield rode aboard a special section of the Seaboard's Orange Blossom Special with a number of special guests including Florida Governor John W. Martin. The train stopped at points along the lines for public ovation with nearly 20,000 people attending. The two-day celebration is considered one of the largest public relations events in the history of American railroads.
