	Campbell Editorial - History Portfolio
		When the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad (CSX) donated the Superb to the museum 40 years earlier, the retired railcar arrived simply as "business car #301." No one knows when the historic name was covered up with dark green paint or when the car's significance was forgotten.
		So it was that the museum contacted the railroad and was surprised to learn another car was available, one that might have otherwise faced a scrapper's cutting torch.
		While the former Gainesville Midland Railroad has been absorbed into CSXT with continued freight service, passenger and mail service was discontinued in 1943 and the last steam locomotive ran through town in 1959.

	Georgia State Parks - A Brief History of the SAM Shortline
		The only railroad serving Sumter and surrounding counties prior to and immediately after the Civil War was the South Western Railroad, which was organized in Macon in the late1840s, reached Americus by October1854, and entered Albany through the purchase of additional track constructed between 1856 and 1857 by the old Georgia and Florida Railway.
		In Americus, the result of the SAM Railroadâs development was a second building and population boom, the likes of which had not been seen since the first boom in the 1850s.
		The railroad was short on cash for a number of reasons, including a new state law limiting the issuance of railroad stocks and bonds, the new law coming at a time when the SAM desperately needed additional capital to cover the cost of building its expensive Montgomery extension.
