During the All Aboard event, the Carter family stopped by the Suwannee County Historical Museum to donate some railroad magazines from the mid 1900’s along with a small, book-like Agreement with the Fruit Growers Express Company and its employees out of Branford, with signatures in the back, operating through the Railway Employees’ Department, dated July 1, 1945. The agreement and magazines had been kept by Kurt Carter and his family for three generations now and felt it was time to donate them to the museum.

Carter received the agreement and railroad magazines from his grandfather Arthur Nettles from Lulu.

The museum’s Charlene Moseley was glad to accept them.
