The Florida Midland Railroad (reporting mark FMID) is one of several short line railroads run by the Pinsly Railroad Company. It has connections to CSX at Wildwood, Florida, Winter Haven, Florida and West Lake Wales, Florida.
In 2000, the company petitioned the Surface Transportation Board to abandon the entire Leesburg Branch; the petition was granted on November 15, 2000. All that remains of the line is approximately 2 miles in Wildwood which is also discussed and abandonment has been approved previously.
The lines were formerly the CSX Bartow Subdivision (Winter Haven area), Leesburg, Ocala and Orlando Subdivisions (Wildwood area), and Lake Wales Subdivision (Lake Wales area).
