JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Gulf & Atlantic Railways is the new name for the holding company known as RailUSA, which is overseeing its two key properties — the Florida, Gulf & Atlantic Railroad and Grenada Railroad — from a new corporate office in Jacksonville.
“We are taking a long-term approach that is heavily focused on investing in our team’s safety and well-being, as well as the integrity of our facilities,” Gulf & Atlantic CEO Ryan Ratledge said in a press release. “While the RailUSA name and brand date back only a few years, we want a name and logo that is unique to us and our new phase of growth.”
The new corporate offices are on the St. John’s River near downtown Jacksonville at 245 Riverside Ave., Suite 250.
The Florida, Gulf & Atlantic operates 430 east-west route-miles along the Interstate 10 corridor between Baldwin and Pensacola, Fla., with a branch from Tallahassee, Fla., to Attapulgus, Ga. It interchanges with CSX Transportation at Baldwin and Pensacola, with AN Railway at Chattahoochee, Fla., and with the Bay Line Railroad at Cottondale, Fla.
The Grenada Railroad, in central Mississippi, operates 280 north-south miles along the Interstate 55 corridor between Canton, Miss., and Memphis, Tenn., and interchanges with six Class I railroads.
