A Few Items from Winter Haven Train Show

While visiting relatives in Lakeland, FL, we took a trip to the knitting shop (The Wife) and a train show sponsored by Regal Railways in Winter Haven, FL.  Was able to pick up a few items for the layout at reasonable cost, I suppose.

For grandson Jake, here are two more military vehicles, loosely defined as a half track and as a deuce and a half.
Still not so sure these are 1950's era vehicles, but they are probably a little more "vintage" than the existing Desert Storm era vehicles.  Sorry about what looks like a dead horse and maybe a sleeping lumberjack in the photo.  Someone evidently bumped the layout!

For the Mill Hill area, some junk in the backyard.
We'll blend the scene into the landscape when we add more ground goop.  Again, the age is a little off for the layout.  It looks like a 1953 or 54 Chevy, but it's too rusty already for a 1956 time period.  I just couldn't pass it up since it seemed to fit the overall scheme of things.
