The First Coast Railroad (reporting mark FCRD) is a railroad in Florida and Georgia, owned by Rail Link (Genesee & Wyoming). It was founded in April 2005 to lease 32 ex-Seaboard Air Line Railroad miles abandoned by CSX. Its lines stretch east from Yulee to Fernandina Beach and north from Yulee to Seals, with a connection at Yulee to CSX to Jacksonville. The north-south line, formely the SAL main line before it was abandoned by the combined Seaboard Coast Line Railroad in favor of the ex-Atlantic Coast Line Railroad main line to the west, connects to the St. Marys Railroad at Kingsland. The line is abandoned north of Seals.

The First Coast Railroad is covered in the June 2006 issue of Trains, the reference used for this article.
