| Post subject: | New Institutional History: Railroad Museum of PA Book |
For those who like to read about how railroad museums have developed over time, now comes a new readable history of the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, titled "The Trains of Our Memory, History of the RRMPa, 1965-2015." This 610-page book by author Peter Osborne is truly the last word on the subject. Now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble or from the Pienpack Company/Yardley Press. Yours truly also wrote the Introduction and an essay on founding Museum Director the late George M. Hart, and was a major consultant/reader/reviewer. For anybody who loves trains, railroad history, museology or the culture of railway museums and preservation this is the book for you! K.R.
