The New York–Miami Silver Meteor heels to a curve near Sebring, Fla., on March 30, 1970, nearly 3 years after the Seaboard + Atlantic Coast Line merger. At 17 cars, the train is a testament to the enduring strength of the New York–Florida rail travel market. William T. Morgan photo

  1. The veteran SCL EMD E8A #593 was twenty years old when this photo was taken… Sadly, it did not survive.

  2. The enduring Silver Meteor… Despite the changing times, it is still alive & well and has been running since 1939.
