Florida Central Railroad Overview
The Florida Central Railroad is one of several short line railroads run by Regional Rail in Florida (along with the Florida Midland Railroad and the Florida Northern Railroad). It runs from downtown Orlando northwest to Apopka and Tavares with a branch to Winter Garden and branches from Tavares to Umatilla and Sorrento. The Florida Central connects with the Central Florida Rail Corridor in downtown Orlando, Florida and has trackage rights on the CFRC from there south to Taft Yard where they interchange with CSX Transportation. The railroad is based out of Plymouth.
FCEN interchanges with CSX in Orlando.
