LOCOMOTIVES

I CAN NOT BELIEVE I FOUND THIS BOOK ABOUT ALL THINGS LOCOMOTIVE WHEN

I WAS OUT JUNKING THE OTHER DAY.

IT WAS ONE OF THOSE THRIFT STORES THAT I PASS BY AND ONLY STOP WHEN THERE IS PARKING.

MY LUCKY DAY-PARKING WAS AVAILABLE RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE STORE!

I WAS GOING TO TAKE IT TO MONTCELLO.

THEN I WAS GOING TO GIVE IT TO THE CGM FOR THE MUSEUM.

THEN I LOOKED AT THE BOOK MORE CLOSELY.

ALTHOUGH IN ROUGH CONDITION-IT WAS PUBLISHED BY THE RAILROAD GAZETTE IN NEW YORK IN 1876.

I DECIDED IT WAS TOO MUCH OF OUR AMERICAN HISTORY TO

GIVE IT UP!

MEANING-I LOVE IT TOO MUCH TO SELL OR SHARE.

SO INTO MY HOUSE IT GOES-AT LEAST FOR NOW!

ENJOY
