We've read and enjoyed the memories of some of our
senior members, along with memories that have been passed down to more junior
members, but we rely on them being typed into an e-mail for circulation.
It is now 43 years since the demise of the Burlington so the experiences are
fading as are the men and women who hold these precious memories.
There is only a limited time to grab this history before it is lost for
ever.
Has anyone considered making an audio record of these memories, or
seeking out ex-CB&Q employees to record their memories? An audio record
doesn't rely on typing, spelling or grammatical skills, or even access to a
computer. Is this something that the BRHS could support, possibly
by buying and loaning the audio recorders, or assisting with the subsequent
transcribing.
I'm a bit far away to get involved, which makes it easier
for me to suggest such a project! Thoughts?
