Can you hear the sound of a whistle?  To commemorate our 40th Anniversary, we’ve put together a special train with displays of photos, uniforms, china, and memorabilia from America’s Railroad while also offering a glimpse into the future.

February 11 - 12, 2012
3570 Clifford Lane
Jacksonville, FL 32209
10 a.m. - 4 p.m.
And, that $115 will save Jacksonville from financial ruin. - Mayor John Peyton

"This is a game-changer. This is what I mean when I say taking Jacksonville to the next level."
-Mayor Alvin Brown on new video boards at Everbank Field

More then models, its a Railroadiana show, meaning it's an excellent source for collecting historical items and papers with regards to our railroad history as well as others around the country.

Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?
