> Rick, what is SBIL? When using an acronym, please spell it out the first > time you use it. SIBL=Science, Industry and Business Library of the New York Public Library. Some, but not all, of the rail-related material is there, or must be ordered from offsite there. Some of us spend considerable time doing research there. For those of you who have not been to NYC in many years, it is the old B.Altman's Department Store building. In fact, the book piskup area is the "B. Altman" desk. The quiz question of the day in the other thread is the result of spending many happy hours reading 1880s editions of the Coal Trade Journal . . .
