Has anyone visited any RR museums in Forida? I'm in the Tampa are and I interested in some real train experiences. There is one in Parish or Bradenton that lets folks rent locos. I think its around $200 which isn't too bad. I'm curious about how long their route is and what areas it goes through. I know part is on the old Seaboard or ACL Bradenton sub, but there isn't much of that left as far as I can tell from sattelite photos. Do they actually use parts of CSX's active system? I'm also wondering if there is actually a time schedule that the Tropicana juice trains run to or from the OJ plant in Bradenton. I fish fom a boat alot in that area, sometimes right under the lift bridge. I have never seen any trains while I was out there, and from the perspective of the boat I could get some great photos or video. I live about 40 miles from there and only seem to se the juice train as they roll through my area, and there doesn't seem to be any particular time.
