Rock Island Museum

Hello from Sunny San Diego.

I just received a call from the public who offered us a trunkload of Rock Island material. I have not seen it. We deal with San Diego and Southern California railroad history.

Is there a museum which deals with Rock Island and could use more paper items? You must be a 501(c)(3) corporation.

Jim -

You need to contact the Rock Island Technical Society. They have a permanent archive of Rock Island material at the Jefferson County Historical Society Rock Island Railroad Museum in the old CRI&P depot in Fairbury, Nebraska. The contact is the societies Secretary, David Engle whose e-mail address is
