Jacksonville-based Gulf & Atlantic Railways LLC said May 1 it is changing its name to Pinsly Railroad Company, after the short line rail operator acquired the railroad operations of Massachusetts-based Pinsly in October.

The company said Pinsly is the second-oldest short line railway company in North America, tracing its roots to 1938.

Pinsly, which will continue to be headquartered at Gulf & Atlantic’s offices at 245 Riverside Ave. in the Brooklyn area of Downtown Jacksonville, operates six short line railroads.
