Историческая железная дорога в Центральной Флориде
Historic railroad in Central Florida
Карта 1888 года
1888 map
Южно-Флоридская железная дорога была железнодорожной линией, соединявшей города Санфорд и Тампа (Флорида). В 1893 году она вошла в состав системы Планта, а в 1902 году – в состав железной дороги Atlantic Coast Line. Она являлась самым южным участком основной магистрали Atlantic Coast Line. Линия продолжает функционировать и сегодня, являясь частью Центрального Флоридского железнодорожного коридора в районе метро Орландо. Остальная часть линии остаётся в собственности компании CSX Transportation как часть их линии A.
The South Florida Railroad was a railroad from Sanford, Florida, to Tampa, Florida, becoming part of the Plant System in 1893 and the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad in 1902. It served as the southernmost segment of the Atlantic Coast Line's main line. The line remains in service today and is now part of the Central Florida Rail Corridor in the Orlando metro area. The rest of the line remains under the ownership of CSX Transportation as part of their A Line.
История
Железная дорога озера Монро и Орландо была организована в 1875 году с уставом на строительство от порта Санфорд на реке Сент-Джонс к югу до Орландо. Железная дорога Южной Флориды была зарегистрирована 16 октября 1878 года, но не смогла получить устав до 9 декабря 1879 года, когда она приняла устав железной дороги озера Монро и Орландо, находившейся под угрозой потери своих земельных грантов. Южная Флорида впервые начала движение 11 ноября 1880 года, по короткому расстоянию между Санфордом и Орландо. Однако компания планировала продолжить путь к Мексиканскому заливу, достигнув его в Тампе. 4 мая 1883 года Генри Б. Плант и его Plant System (возглавляемая железной дорогой Savannah, Florida and Western Railway) приобрели 3/5 акций Южной Флориды после неудачной попытки купить Florida Southern Railway. Плант заключил соглашение с Florida Southern о том, что SF&W не будет строиться к югу от Гейнсвилла или Палатки, северных конечных пунктов Florida Southern, но существующая Южная Флорида была исключена из этого соглашения. Плант заключил соглашения со всеми железными дорогами, строившимися в направлении Тампы, за исключением Florida Transit and Peninsular Railroad. В частности, Florida Southern не будет строить никаких линий к югу от Пембертонс-Ферри и Бруксвилла или к северу от Бартоу, а Южная Флорида построит свою ветку Пембертон-Ферри между ними и предоставит Florida Southern права на использование путей. Соглашение с Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway предусматривало, что эта компания будет строить только к северу от Санфорда; в обоих случаях Южная Флорида отказывалась от своих прав на территории, переданные другим компаниям. JT&KW уже выполнила часть подготовительных работ в Бартоу и Тампе и продала их Южной Флориде. Таким образом, две железные дороги остались в гонке к Тампе – Южная Флорида и Florida Transit and Peninsular Railroad. Южной Флориде удалось добраться туда первой и получить лучшие порты (ныне известные как Порт-Тампа). Первоначальный пассажирский депо Южной Флориды в Тампе располагался на восточной стороне перекрестка улиц Эшли и Мэдисон. Тампа-энд открылся 10 декабря 1883 года, а 25 января 1884 года началось движение по всей линии, построенной с шириной колеи 3 фута. 20 февраля 1886 года железная дорога Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West открылась до Санфорда, а 22 сентября Южная Флорида была переведена на стандартную колею. В 1893 году Savannah, Florida and Western Railway (Plant System) напрямую приобрела Южную Флориду. Генри Плант умер в 1899 году, что привело к продаже его наследниками Plant System железной дороге Atlantic Coast Line Railroad в 1902 году. Atlantic Coast Line затем обозначила основную линию железной дороги Южной Флориды (наряду с основной линией железной дороги Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway и других железных дорог на севере) как свою почти 900-мильную основную линию от Ричмонда, Вирджиния, до Тампы. В 1967 году Atlantic Coast Line объединилась с Seaboard Air Line Railroad (которая управляла бывшей Florida Central and Peninsular Railroad, бывшим конкурентом Южной Флориды), образовав Seaboard Coast Line Railroad. Seaboard Coast Line в конечном итоге стала CSX в 1980-х годах, и основная линия South Florida/Atlantic Coast Line теперь функционирует как часть одной из двух основных линий в этом районе, известной как линия "A". В 2011 году CSX продала линию от Поинчианы на север (а также часть бывшей железной дороги Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway) Департаменту транспорта Флориды. Этот участок, принадлежащий государству, известен как Central Florida Rail Corridor, который включает в себя большую часть пути, по которому работает пригородная железнодорожная служба SunRail. SunRail начала работу 1 мая 2014 года от Sand Lake Road на север до ДеБари и расширила обслуживание на юг до Поинчианы 30 июля 2018 года. SunRail также возобновила пассажирское сообщение до исторического вокзала Черч-стрит в центре Орландо.
The Lake Monroe and Orlando Railroad was organized in 1875 with a charter to build from the St. Johns River port of Sanford south to Orlando. The South Florida Railroad was incorporated on October 16, 1878, but was unable to obtain a charter until December 9, 1879, when it took over the charter of the Lake Monroe and Orlando, which was in danger of losing its land grants. The South Florida first ran on November 11, 1880, running the short distance between Sanford and Orlando. However the company had plans to continue to the Gulf of Mexico, reaching it at Tampa. On May 4, 1883, Henry B. Plant and his Plant System (headed by the Savannah, Florida and Western Railway) bought 3/5 of the stock of the South Florida after an unsuccessful attempt to buy the Florida Southern Railway. Plant had made an agreement with the Florida Southern not to build the SF&W south of Gainesville or Palatka, the northern ends of the Florida Southern, but the existing South Florida was immune from this. Plant then made agreements with all the railroads building towards Tampa except for the Florida Transit and Peninsular Railroad. Specifically, the Florida Southern would not build any lines south of Pemberton's Ferry and Brooksville or north of Bartow, and the South Florida would build its Pemberton Ferry Branch between the two and assign trackage rights to the Florida Southern. The agreement with the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway specified that that company would only build north of Sanford; in both cases the South Florida would give up their rights to the territories given to the other companies. The JT&KW had already done some grading at Bartow and Tampa, and sold them to the South Florida. Thus two railroads remained in a race towards Tampa the South Florida and the Florida Transit and Peninsular Railroad. The South Florida managed to get there first, and obtained the best ports (now known as Port Tampa). The South Florida's original passenger depot in Tampa was located on the east side of the intersection of Ashley and Madison Streets. The Tampa end opened on December 10, 1883, and on January 25, 1884 service began over the full line, built to 3 feet narrow gauge. On February 20, 1886 the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway opened to Sanford, and the South Florida was converted to standard gauge on September 22. In 1893 the Savannah, Florida and Western Railway (Plant System) directly acquired the South Florida. Henry Plant died in 1899, which led his heirs to sell the Plant System to the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad in 1902. The Atlantic Coast Line would then designate the South Florida Railroad main line (along with the main line of the Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway and other railroads to the north) as their nearly 900 mile main line from Richmond, Virginia to Tampa. In 1967 the Atlantic Coast Line merged with the Seaboard Air Line Railroad (who operated the former Florida Central and Peninsular Railroad, the South Florida's former competitor), becoming the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad. Seaboard Coast Line eventually became CSX in the 1980s, and the South Florida/Atlantic Coast Line main line now operates as part of one of its two main lines in the area, known as the "A" Line. In 2011, CSX sold the line from Poinciana north (as well as part of the former Jacksonville, Tampa and Key West Railway) to the Florida Department of Transportation. This state owned segment is known as the Central Florida Rail Corridor, which includes most of the track that the SunRail commuter rail service operates on. SunRail began operation on May 1, 2014, from Sand Lake Road north to DeBary and extended service south to Poinciana on July 30, 2018. SunRail also revived passenger service to the South Florida Railroad's historic Church Street Station in Downtown Orlando.
Отделение Бартоу
В уставе было указано, что железная дорога должна проходить через Бартоу; таким образом, была построена ветка Бартоу от основной линии у озера Альфред (Bartow Junction) на юго-запад до Бартоу. Она была открыта в 1884 году, а 23 сентября 1886 года на ней была установлена стандартная колея. В период, когда железная дорога принадлежала Atlantic Coast Line, многие их пассажирские поезда до Форт-Майерс и Неаполя ходили по ветке Бартоу.
The charter specified that the railroad must pass through Bartow; thus the Bartow Branch was built from the mainline at Lake Alfred (Bartow Junction) southwest to Bartow. It opened in 1884 and was standard gauged on September 23, 1886. In the Atlantic Coast Line era, many of their passenger trains to Fort Myers and Naples would run on the Bartow Branch.
