To Don Hensley: I was very interested in knowing what you have on the Ocklawaha Valley railroad. I have photos of the mogul at Ft. Mc Coy, of the goat, flat car, a flat crossing a bridge, train at Silver Springs, boat and train at the springs. several in Palatka and a few others. I also have several modern shots along the line including a rail growing up in a tree...etc. I would like to get photos of the depots in Rodman, Kenwood, Kenilworth, Orange Springs (which was burnned only a few years ago. I am planning to do a history on this railroad. Bob

I have a few photos and much info on this railroad, that was also known as the Ocala Northern. Operated from 1909 to 1922 and was mostly lumber oriented. Contact me by e-mail for specific questions. Don
