Bob Nimke

I am saddened to read of the passing of historian and railroader Bob Nimke. He was a crusty sort, until one got to know him, then he'd be a source of information and refuter of myths about the railroads of Northern New England. He also had considerable knowledge of rate making in the days of the ICC, and one of its harshest critics. He will be missed.
