We have just received a generous donation from an anonymous donor of several electric railway artifacts as seen here.
First, there's an interior window from one of CA&E Niles cars like the 308. Then a gong which is labeled C&WT in chalk. A CA&E whistle, a roll sign mechanism, and two roll signs in good condition, one from West Towns and one, I think, from Gary Rys. And then some paper items I haven't gone through yet. I'll be dropping all of this off at the Museum tomorrow. I probably don't have to point out how grateful we are for donations like this, that help keep the trains running and provide informative displays for our visitors. And if you, the viewer, have railroad-related items of almost any sort that you would be willing to donate, let's talk!News and views of progress at the Illinois Railway Museum
