Just wow!

Hello,

I'm a volunteer at the San Luis Obispo Railroad Museum, currently working on signage for artifacts in our Exhibit Hall. I just spent the last several hours traveling through your website. Of all the websites I have visited in my pursuit of information over the past several months, your website is by far the most comprehensive and entertaining.

Thank you so very much for making all that information available. I doubt there isn't anything you haven't covered regarding the Central Pacific Railroad and the early history of railroading.

When I finally reached the bottom of the [home] page and saw your request for feedback – how could I refuse?

I work at Creighton University in Omaha, Neb. I am attaching a photo ... to see if you can tell me where I can gain permission to include it in our university’s magazine. We are working on a story about “Historical Patterns in American Immigration.” ...
