Brean Fowler General Hi Mike, 3/18/2014 11:53:17 PM
Brean Fowler General Hi Mike, My name is Brean Crosby Fowler. My father is Russell Crosby, the Vice President and General Manager of the TSU Railway you have photographed above. I'm contacting you, as we are currently in the process of writing a book about the owners of this railroad. This pullman car was a personal favorite of the owner, and we would like to include this image in our book, with your permission. We would be happy to give you credit in our book for the image if you agree to allow us to use this image. We greatly appreciate your consideration in this matter and look forward to hearing from you soon! Take care, 3/18/2014 11:55:29 PM
