Hi folks,

I was giving a presentation last night to the Rocky Mountain RR Club on the EL and showed a photo of the westbound Phoebe Snow picking up mail in Morristown from the mail crane in April 1964. I have posted the photo I took.

There was a question from the group about the specifics of that RPO route. Does anyone know the actual RPO route for the Phoebe Snow and what other locations were designated as a mail pick-up from a mail crane along the route? Perhaps a future Diamond article if more information surfaces. Thanks.

Bill Botkin
