description: Pictorial history of this once famous train that ran from New York to Florida, providing relief from the cold to weary Northerners. As David Morgan, editor or Trains magazine, once said, "Was there ever a more exotic American passenger train name than the Orange Blossom Special? This winter-season all-Pullman flyer of the Seaboard Air Line wined and dined away the winter burdens of her New York clientele, rolling them south to the palms and sun of Florida behind anonymous engineers with gloved hands on steam throttles." Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. Includes consists, maps, timetables, menus, ads and bibliography. 78 pages.
