Possum Flats & Eastern Railroad
- Located in Casselberry, Florida, the Possum Flats and Eastern Railroad was owned and operated by John L. Cassady Sr. The railroad and his property were a beloved attraction among the children of Central Florida. The railroad was completed in 1969 and featured over 3,800 feet of track, a steam engine as well as a diesel engine. John Cassady also received assistance in maintaining and operating the railroad from a retired 4-star general, Bruce K. Holloway. The railroad stopped carrying passengers in 1995, but remains of the railroad have been adopted and are used by other live miniature railroad enthusiasts.
