The Florida Central Railroad, headquartered in Thomasville, Georgia , constructed a 47 mile line between that city and Fanlew, Florida in 1907 and 1908 . The first 10 miles ran from Thomasville to the lumber mill in Metcalf , then on to Roddenberry . The Florida Central ran parallel to part of an Atlantic Coast Line line, crossing the ACL near the Florida/Georgia border and then running south to Stringers, Florida . From there the FC ran to Miccosukee and Wadesboro , then to Lloyd , Capitola , and Cody , terminating at Fanlew at a connection with the Seaboard Air Line . In 1914 , the Seaboard Air Line purchased the Florida Central |
