Railway Mail Service presentation for NRHS Chapter use

[NW Mailing List]

The Railway Mail Service Library has prepared a presentation regarding researching Railway Post Office distribution en route between 1864 and 1977.  NRHS Chapters are periodically seeking programs and are welcome to use the presentation slides available at these web links, which are guaranteed to be spamware-free:
http://www.railwaymailservicelibrary.org/articles/RMSCHED2.pdf
http://www.railwaymailservicelibrary.org/articles/RMSCHED2.ppt
Both are the same presentation; the Adobe Acrobat file is saved as "Notes Pages" for recipients who cannot open a PowerPoint file.  Microsoft offers a free PowerPoint viewer for the RMSSCHED2.ppt file.  If anyone has questions, please contact me.

Best wishes,

Dr. Frank R. Scheer, Curator
