[RITSlist] 1907 RI promotional book on-line

[Alan Kline]

The "Internet Archive" has posted in its online book archive a 1907 
promotional book published by the Rock Island, extolling the virtues of 
New Mexico as a "near paradise", and an ideal spot to settle and farm.

The URL is http://www.archive.org/details/newmexicolandofs00chicrich
(mind the line wrap in the URL...). It's about a 7.7MB (free) download 
as a PDF.

Very light on railroad information per se, but a very interesting look 
at the RI's marketing of a century ago. There is a rail map of eastern 
New Mexico, however...
