"This promotional map shows the Florida East Coast Railway/Steamship line running from Jacksonville to Key West. It was popular for transportation companies to create colorful looking maps showing their routes in hopes of luring more customers. Based upon the population movement to the East Coast of Florida, this promotional tag-line may have started the long migration to this popular area." &mdash: Library of Congress
