Hey in this caboose there are two large wooden crates mostly burried. I plan to try and get them out thi week. They are closed with wwod tops looks like they are nailed with rope around each side tied.Trying to remove the silt so I can get them out the water becomes very murky One has the side facing up and some os the letters on it read as follows
CRO_N C_RK
&
S_ _L CO

B_ _ _ I M_ _ _ _D

does anyone have any idea what it spells. They are very heavy and I feel ther could be something in there besides mud.
