    Description

    Seaboard Coast Line 1967
    The Seaboard Coast Line emerged on July 1, 1967, following the merger of the
    Seaboard Air Line Railroad
    with the
    Atlantic Coast Line Railroad
    . The combined system totaled 9,809 miles (15,786 km), the eighth largest in the United States at the time
    The railroad had .2 billion in assets and revenue with a 54% market share of rail service in the
    Southeast
    , facing competition primarily from the
    Southern
    .
    [2]
    The seemingly redundant name resulted from the longstanding short-form names of these two major Southeastern railroads. For years, SAL had been popularly known as "Seaboard," while ACL was known as "the Coast Line."
