SCL - Family Lines. Seaboard Coast Line inherited these cars from both Atlantic Coast Line (previously available from Bluford Shops) and Seaboard Air Line (see page 3) in their 1967 merger. In 1975, a portion of the combined fleet received heavy service at SCL’s Tampa shops and emerged in The Family Lines paint scheme. The Family Lines encompassed SCL, Louisville & Nashville, Clinchfield, Georgia, Atlanta & West Point and Western Railway of Alabama. SCL had stock control of L&N. SCL and L&N jointly owned Clinchfield and jointly controlled Georgia Railroad. Georgia controlled A&WP and WoA. The latter two were together called “West Point Route.” All were folded into Seaboard System in 1983. This roadname will be available in 6 road numbers.
