Recent Donations

We have just received some more interesting artifacts donated by long-time IRM friend Robert Campbell, who is moving out of state. I can't tell you how much we appreciate gifts like this!

First we have a set of four advertising cards from the CA&E. These cards are all double-sided and would be hung on clips over the window between the smoker and the main compartments. As a rule, they advertise upcoming one-time events and wouldn't be used for very long. These are all in very good condition considering their age.

There's something for everybody here: natural history lectures, flowers, livestock, and boxing! What's not to like?

And all these events have one thing in common: there's only one sensible way to get there.

And finally, we have a trolley frog that came from St. Louis. These heavy castings cannot easily be replaced and are always useful. Thanks, Bob!


Remember, if you have railroad artifacts or memorabilia you no longer want or can care for, IRM can always give them a good home!
