(1)  Basis of Presentation.  The accompanying consolidated
condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries.  These statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and
do not include all the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods have
been included.  Operating results for the nine months ended June
30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997.  The
accompanying consolidated financial statements and the information
included under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis"
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes of FRP Properties, Inc. for the year
ended September 30, 1996.

(2)  Earnings Per Share.  Earnings per share are based on the
weighted average number of shares outstanding and common stock
equivalents, where applicable, during the periods.  Fully diluted
earnings per share are not reported because the effect would have
been less than 3% dilutive.

(3)  Contingent Liabilities.  The Company and its subsidiaries are
subject to legal proceedings and claims arising out of their
businesses that cover a wide range of matters.  Additional
information concerning these matters is presented in Note 10 to the
consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 1996
Annual Report to stockholders.  Such information is incorporated
herein by reference.

For the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1997, ended June 30,
1997, consolidated revenues increased 5.0% and 4.5%, respectively, over the
same periods last year.

The Transportation segment had increased revenue for the third quarter and
first nine months of 6.7% and 6.1%, respectively, due principally in the
quarter and in the first nine month period due to a 5.6% and 4.4% increase in
miles hauled coupled with a 1.1% and 1.7% increase in the average hauling
price, respectively.

Real estate revenues for the third quarter remained about level with the same
quarter last year and decreased $191,000 or 3.0% for the first nine months
from the same period last year.  The decrease in revenue resulted principally
from a decrease in royalty income of approximately $207,000.  The decrease in
royalty income was due principally to a decrease in mining activities on two
of the Company's properties.

For the third quarter, excluding the $89,000 gain on the sale of real estate
reported last year, gross profit increased $116,000 or 2.9% over the third
quarter last year.  For the first nine months, excluding the $93,000 gain on
the sale of real estate reported last year, gross profit decreased $487,000
or 4.4% from the same period last year.

Gross profit in the Transportation segment increased $43,000 or 1.6% for the
third quarter and decreased $494,000 or 6.4% for the first nine months from
the same periods last year.  The per gallon fuel cost has been trending down
since October 1996.  The average per gallon cost for the third quarter was
4.1% lower and for the first nine months was 7.0% higher than the respective
periods last year.  The Transportation segment's gross profit for the third
quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1996 included a net gain from the
sale of revenue equipment of $211,000 and $623,000, respectively, over the
same periods in fiscal 1997.

Gross profit in the Real Estate segment, excluding the sale of real estate,
increased $73,000 and $7,000 for the third quarter and first nine months,
respectively, from the same periods last year.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased 1.6% in the third
quarter and 2.0% in the first nine months over the same periods last year. 
The increases were due principally to the increased revenue.  Selling,
general and administrative expense decreased slightly as a percent of sales
in the current periods from the same periods last year.

In the third quarter and first nine months of this year the Company
capitalized $36,000 and $164,000, respectively, in interest expense as part
of the cost of two projects which are under construction.  This was the
principal reason that interest expense declined $52,000 and $206,000 from the
same periods last year.

Financial Condition

The Company continues to maintain its sound financial condition with
sufficient resources to meet anticipated capital expenditures and other
operating requirements.

Other.

During fiscal 1996, the transportation segment's ten largest customers
accounted for approximately 35% of transportation's revenue.  The loss of any
one of these customers could have an adverse effect on the Company's revenue
and income.

While the Company is affected by environmental regulations, such regulations
are not expected to have a major effect on the Company's capital expenditures
or operating results.  Additional information concerning environmental
matters is presented in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements
included in the Company's 1996 Annual Report to stockholders.  Such
information is incorporated herein by reference.
