Things to watch for:

10:37 into the video the trains start rolling...
11:02 Nassau River grade off north Main...
11:38 Baldwin area
11:43 JACKSONVILLE TERMINAL
12:00 In case your curious about the Centipede locomotive we discussed a few months back (on the "S")
13:03 JACKSONVILLE REA TERMINAL
13:16 Emory University Station (east? switch)


WHERE THE PURPLE COMES FROM?

Things to watch for, while this video is apparently for "railroad foamers," it is a nice view of what a REAL railroad museum should look and act like. Mr. Blaylock said he want's us to include a transportation museum in our/JTA plans, no doubt city owned and operated by a non-profit. Frankly it is a great idea and would finally give us a SOMETHING that isn't found in quality this side of Tennessee or the Carolinas. In just the last week I have seen a roadside shed containing an old Florida logging engine 'on display' and in worse shape then our own 1504, and found a FOR SALE ad on one of the last, and a genuine Florida Doodlebug Train (think early DMU OR RDC).
