Seminole Gulf RailwayThe Seminole Gulf Railway is a short line railroad in southwest Florida. It has two separate lines. One runs from Oneco, Florida south to Venice, Florida, with branches from Sarasota, Florida to Matoka, Florida and Fruitville, Florida. The other runs from Arcadia, Florida to Vanderbilt Beach, Florida/North Naples, Florida, with no significant branches. Each line has one interchange point with CSX, at Oneco (with the Palmetto Subdivision) and Arcadia (with the Brewster Subdivision). History The main line, from Arcadia to North Naples, was run by the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, which eventually became part of CSX. The Sarasota line was run by the Seaboard Air Line Railroad (except for the branch to Matoka, which was ACL), which also became part of CSX. SGLR took over the trackage from CSX in November 1987. The railroad has run excursion trains since January 1991. See also External links
