Do you want this particularissue? We have scads of employee timetables dating from just after the turn of the TwentiethCentury. While there are some gaps, we certainly havethe majority of those issued since then. Most are by division, but some early ones are combined forthe system. The storage boxes of employee timetablestake up most of two shelves, each shelf being 6 - 8feet long.Let me know what you want, and I'll check withPresident Gillum about any cost to you. If you aren'tin a hurry for the copies, I could make some the next time that I go to the archives. The oldtimetables would be copied onto legal size sheets.GordonDecember 13, 2004Good morning, Gordon:Thanks for letting me know about the employeetimeable. It's good to know that so many of themexist in the archives.I've held off buying the "partner's desk" plan so Icould buy a timetable copy at the same time. Depending on cost, I might be interested in a set ofShenandoah Division employee timetables about tenyears apart from as early as is available until 1957or so.In doing so, if it is possible to determine the datethat Boyce was closed as an agency, that wouldlikewise be nice to know. In any event, thanks foryour assistance!Happy holidays to you and Jim,=====Dr. Frank R.
