No, H.sanada. I don't have any railway people in my family. I found the picture in the attic of a house I use to rent. The person I rented the house from didn't want them, so I kept them. There were also a couple of pictures of a Fire Engine company from around 1914. The men were all posed around their vehicles. I love old photos. They tell stories.
I agree with you that they don't make things like they use to. In days of old, poeple didn't have disposable incomes. What they bought needed to last a very long time. Nowadays, things are made on the cheap so you have to replace them more often. That's how companies make their money. Ain't it great!

For you train buffs, I found this picture in the attic of a house I use to live in. I don't know the year of the picture, but it looks quite old. Kind of a big train, ain't it? Enjoy!

That was very interesting, H.sanada. I had never thought to look for that. Did you notice this all by yourself, or had you read about it somewhere? Thanks for sharing that info with us.
