This CSX ex-Louisville & Nashville 65’ mill gondola with ASF Ride Control trucks was one of several cars specially outfitted to carry C-130 Hercules horizontal and vertical stabilizers. The L&N was a Class I railroad with just over 6,000 miles of track across the South-east US, running regular scheduled passenger service for decades, before being merged into Seaboard System in the early 1980s. Seaboard Air Line merged with Atlantic Coast Line Railroad in 1967, forming the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad, which was then renamed Seaboard System in 1982.
