Bluford Shops - N Scale - Auto Parts Double Door Box Car - L&N Family Lines - (Single car) (SKU 188-86301)
Available On: March 1, 2010

Louisville & Nashville received their last batch of 86' boxcars from Greenville in 1977. They were delivered in this Family Lines paint scheme. The Family Lines consisted of Seaboard Coast Line, L&N, Clinchfield, Georgia, Atlanta & West Point, and Western Railway of Alabama (the latter two were known together as The West Point Route.) SCL owned a significant block of L&N stock. The two together jointly owned the Clinchfield. L&N and SCL also jointly controlled the Georgia who in turn controlled the two West Point Route roads. So the Family Lines was not an encorporated entity but could be thought of as a shared marketing image. Beginning in 1983, L&N and SCL were merged as Seaboard System with the other Family Lines roads included as well. Seaboard System was already under the CSX Corp umbrella and about three years later Seaboard System changed its name to CSX Transportation
