THE ROBERT L. LONG PHOTO COLLECTION

Robert L. Long was a member of the West Jersey Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society. He donated a collection of 33 photos taken at various railroads in West Virginia in the mid-1960s to the Chapter. After Mr. Long's death the chapter donated the prints of the photos to MSR&LHA and the original negatives to the National Railway Historical Society's archives.
