GOOGLE MAPS no longer available: With apologies, I am unable to continue showing Google Maps. Google has forced my hand by increasing their map usage fee from nothing/free to OVER $300 A MONTH for the Abandoned Rails website! This is an expense that I simply cannot afford. Rest assured I am looking at available open source alternatives, so maps should be back online soon!

Describing this section as running to Lacoochee is somewhat misleading, in that it does not in fact go to or through Lacoochee. There is another abandoned line, the Sanford and St Pete (ACL), called by old-timers the ''Goat Road'', that wound its way through Lacoochee. There is also a former SAL line, still present, going through there.

There's the remnants of the old swing bridge crossing the Withlacoochee River about 1/2 mile west of US41 just before you enter Dunnellon from the south.

There are two large concrete bases in the river, the middle one has a steel rail forming a circle (about 8 feet diameter) that allowed the center span to swing / rotate on it for boat traffic.
