From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic Railway, later known as the Atlanta, Birmingham & Coast Railroad, was organized in 1926. The Atlanta, Birmingham & Coast Railroad was controlled by the Atlantic Coast Line, which owned a majority of the Atlanta, Birmingham & Coast Railroad's rolling stock. In 1946, the Atlanta, Birmingham & Coast Railroad was bought by the ACL Company and the Atlanta, Birmingham & Coast Railroad became the Atlantic Coast Line Western Devision. The railroad was nicknamed the ABC.
