Changes

== Major Local Branch Lines ==

There were several major branch lines serving clients in the Pensacola area. The Goulding Branch industrial park lead, which led to the port and L&N connection, crossed [[Palafox Street]] south of [[Fairfield Drive]]. A branch to the [[Naval Air Station Pensacola|Pensacola Naval Air Station]] crossed [[Bayou Chico]] on a [[Wikipedia:Bascule Bridge|Bascule]] bridge, now long since demolished. This branch was formerly shared with the [[Pensacola streetcar system|Pensacola Streetcar System]], and long after the streetcars disappeared was known as the "Dummy Line", owing to its heritage as a non-electric tram line for Navy Yard workers, with trains pulled by so-called [[Wikipedia:Steam dummy|"steam dummy"]] locomotives. Another branch led to the old [[Frisco passenger station]], a [[Wikipedia:Mission Revival Style architecture|Mission Revival-style]] structure at the corner of [[Garden Street]] and [[Coyle Street]], now the site of a BellSouth facility. [[Frisco locomotive #1355]] is placed at this location in commemoration of the former passenger depot, demolished in [[1967]]. The easement for this branch is clearly visible, parallel to and just south of Garden Street from [[Pace Boulevard]] to the former station site, crossing intervening roads with some rails still embedded. There was also a branch to the [[Armstrong Cork Plant]], which is still in use. The Pensacola Naval Air Station and passenger station branches were mostly inactive by the early to mid 70s with the NAS branch being removed in the mid 70s.
