Apopka and Atlantic Railroad collection, circa 1885-1887, 1993

0.05 Linear Feet 1 folder
The Apopka and Atlantic Railroad collection, circa 1885-1887 contains a matted photograph of the Apopka and Atlantic Railroad line in the old town of Mayo (current Maitland), and a letter and copies of the "Florida Official Path Finder" explaining the history and location of the photo. The photograph shows a train outside of an engine house with two white engineers on the train and three Black workers posed at the end of the train. This collection is a rare look into the short-lived Apopka and Atlantic Railroad Line. It also provides insight into segregation in the 1880s. This photograph was taken in the old town of Mayo, also known as Woodbridge. Mayo was a white settlement and Woodbridge was settled by Black laborers, the railroad separating the two. The Apopka and Atlantic Railroad was active from 1885-1887 and closed in 1888 due to lack of business. This line connected Mayo (South Florida Railroad) and Forest City (Orange Belt Railroad).
