    Description

    The Railway Progress Institute (RPI) is the international association of suppliers to the nation’s freight, passenger rail systems, and rail transit authorities. Founded in September 1908 as the Railway Business Association, RPI is one of the oldest trade associations in the country. The Railway Business Association was reorganized in 1955 as RPI. This book is about those first 50 years by decade with a chapter on the "Fateful Year of Fifty-Eight."  There are also photos of previous Presidents of the Association including the author. Very Rare volume for the railroad collector!
