Where were the ACL and SAL stations in Savannah prior to the merger?

As far as the passenger stations, both roads shared the building that is still used by Amtrak in "west" Savannah. This attractive brick and steel structure was opened in 1962 I think when the old union station downtown was closed to make way for an interstate on/off ramp.The new station even had a sign across the front portico that read " Seaboard - Coast Line Passenger Station" With its ample waiting room and plenty of parking area, this was most likely one of the last stations of its kind built here in the east.
