...and in my mail a week or two ago was a selection of half a dozen or so railroaders log books where the guys accounted for their time when working. Basic stuff like "Greased the flanges on the tender" --- and "Cleared the snow from station platform." These were from 1910 and 1911. It was a subtle window into another era that I recreated with my music for 40 years.
