We’ve been fortunate to have been featured on six episodes of Rick Dale's American Restoration This was the start of our experience with American Restoration. As part of our interpretation the same member purchased an old strongbox and paid to have it restored by Rick and his crew. One of our members owns a 1929 Ford Model AA Railway Express Truck that is used by the museum on occasion. Several years ago the railroad repainted Baggage/Railway Post Office Car 20 back to its 1930s paint scheme.
To transport valuables a strongbox was used. If you needed something shipped you used Railway Express. Before FED EX, there was the Railway Express Agency (REA).
