Burlington Bulletin No. 54
Burlington Bulletin 54 was mailed from JPA in Pontiac on November 30th and should be arriving in your mailbox soon! This is another three topic Bulletin featuring Rupert Gamlen's "Disaster in the Suburbs" article covering three early 20th century wrecks at Western Springs. Next is Leo Phillipp's "Sterling Motor Car" article examining the change from steam passenger operations to a motor car on the Sterling-Shabbona-Serena (Illinois) run. Bringing up the markers is a photo essay of four months in 1959 of the Q in Lincoln from the camera of Irv Fierstein. The photos are from the BRHS Archive and were captioned by Archive Committee member Jim Sandrin. The issue is 68 pages loaded with photos, maps, charts and other illustrations.
