    Hey all . I was walking through the Forrest park museum in Perry yesterday with my daughter. And this book was just sitting there for all to look through. Crazy right? But then in the building next door is the library with quite a few more books.
    Back to the book in the photo, it was printed in 1906. There is a picture of the Milwaukee station in Milwaukee on an opening page. Beautiful picture. And yes, there is also some books ( about a dozen or more) from 1901 about how rail cars were built. I will be going back!

    Do you recall an author's name for this book? I am searching memory, and believe I have seen it mentioned or quoted, but beyond that nothing is coming forward right now.

    Well the binding is gone. And the pages are pretty. So I was really careful. I saw the date and the picture. I am going to get in contact with the curator and see if he will let me view it in the library.
