I need to make a few repairs to railing and support posts where in the move from spot to spot a few were broken/knocked off.

The Cracker Boy sign was taken from a book I have on all citrus labels. The Cracker Boy was a brand from the South Central Florida area.

As always Tom, the railroad looks fantastic.  And I will have to remember that tip about not feeding marshmellows to the gators.  Sound like good advice.

;D ;D ;D

Hey Tom:

That's a great looking building. Is it scratch built or is it a kit. I'll guess and say scratch built. At any rate can't to see this area finished.

Cheers, Mark,

Sorry I neglected to respond sooner. Thank you for stopping by. I got the Cracker Boy signage from a book showing all the ends of old wood crate/fruit box labels.

Thank you and I for one am ready to get to the scenery.  A few tasks to do first.

Bruce,

Thank you for the kind compliment. Yet,  the stupid stuff I did in my youth scares me now. I should have eaten the marsh mellows myself.

Karl,

I agree, these are fantastic buildings. Frank Baker, Erieman, scratch built both of these for the A&S RR.
