Hello,

I am cleaning out a closet and wondered if there is any interest in a couple manuals. My father-in-law was an engineer on the Chicago Railroads in the 1950's.

Have: Exhaust Steam Injectors operation and Service Instructions for Injectors
Instruction book Barco Low Water Alarm
Operator's Manual for Steam Generators
Diesel Locomotives Lococation of Cutout Cocks 1955
running Repair Redbook July 1955
Enginemen's Manual by Fairbanks-Morse 1950

if you are in the chicago area, you are more than welcome to donate them to the Illinois Railway Museum.
www.irm.org
We will be happy to put them to good use, and give you a receipt verifying your donation to a not for profit organization
