Railway Cars located at The North Carolina Transportation Museum in Spencer, North Carolina. The Museum has several Trains, Train Engines, Airplanes, Antique Cars and other transportation vehicles on display for visitors to see for a minimal cost.
I took Coleman to the North Carolina Transportation Museum back in 2021 just after he turned 2. He loved seeing the variety of transportation vehicles on display.
The Melville Dairy operated in Burlington, North Carolina for forty (40) years from 1927 to 1967.
Original
It used Horse-Drawn Wagon during its early years of operation in and around Burlington. It was founded by brothers Ralph Henderson Scott Sr. and Henry A. Scott.
Monochrome
It first sold dairy products directly from the family farm in the Hawfields community. By 1935, the brothers had built a plant in Burlington to process and sell milk from their own farm and other local dairies. Eventually, 150 farms provided milk to Melville Dairy Products

Coleman and myself saw this Melville Dairy Wagon on display when we visited The North Carolina Transportation Museum in Spencer, North Carolina back in 2021. [He loved seeing all the automobiles, carriage, airplanes and trains.] It was restored by Byron Hargrove Siler City, NC.

Mayworth’s Public House in downtown Cramerton offers an upscale pub atmosphere and features a menu of classic American favourites. It uses only the finest and freshest ingredients available. Their cuisine is always freshly made to order by their skilled culinary team. Customers, if desired, may choose from a find cocktail menu, a variety of popular wines as well as a fine rotating selection of craft, draft, and local Charlotte and North Carolina beer.
Mayworth’s decorated all three of their front windows similarly with painted white “snow” and red, white, and silver ornaments.
I’m gonna digress for a bit to examine the history behind the naming of Mayworth’s. The town currently known as Cramerton was originally known as Mayesworth in 1906. It was named after John H. Mayes, one of the founders of the Mayes Manufacturing Company. The Mayes Manufacturing Company was a cotton mill built on the banks of the Catawba River.
In 1915, the town name changed its name from Mayesworth to Mayworth. The town was later purchased by Stuart Warren Cramer. In 1922, the town’s name changed once again officially becoming Cramerton. Cramerton became an incorporated town in 1967.
When it came to naming the restaurant and pub the owners chose to name it Mayworth’s in honour of Cramerton’s original founding father.
I have not as yet eaten at Mayworth’s Restaurant and Pub. I have walked past it several times walking through downtown Cramerton and heading towards Confluence. Looking at their menu, I’m not sure they offer any lactose free items, which would be mandatory for Coleman to be able to eat anything from their menu.
