I found another gem in the items saved from the Kansas City Southern files by longtime (1940-1984) KCS employee Robert Campbell; This is a January 16, 1912 Memorandum from KCS Telegraph Superintendent R.L. Logan to KCS General Manager J.E. Muhlfeld regarding his visit to the McKeen Motor Car Works in Omaha, Nebraska. Jason Midyette

Looks like a early but likely unintentional example of what rail vehicle engineers now call "crash energy management". /s/ Larry Lawrence G. Lovejoy, P.E. |

I have known about this incident for a good while, but the nice quality photos, as opposed to printed photo in a magazine, is quite nice, and what a coincidence, as I recently bought a General Electric Motor Car Catalog from the Kansas City Southern I believe. Daylight25 wrote:
