TAMPA NORTHERN RAILROAD COMPANY
===================================
Snapshot History: Tampa Noprthern Railroad Co. The Tampa Northern Railroad Co. was long on big plans. On May 14, 1906, it was incorporated to build a 500 mile line from Tampa, Florida to Atlanta, Georgia. On January 1, 1908 it began service over 46.56 miles from Tampa to Brooksville, Florida. On December 1, 1930, when it was leased to the Seaboard Air Line, with whom it connected, it was still the same length. Over the years, while extending its mainline no further, it did manage to build 20.52 miles of short branches, sidings, yards and other miscellaneous trackage. The Tampa Northern's wealth lay in the fact that it owned significant real estate along the waterfront and in Tampa, originally planned for terminal and industrial facilities. In December of 1946, The Seaboard Air Line acquired the Tampa Northern and merged it into its own operations.
