I like to check the recent posting of photos at the John W. Barriger III library at Flickr every now-and-then. Recently, an album of 1,370 photos by William Rapp have been added. Some are in the UK, some are towers, some are post cards. ALL are very interesting to view and use as a modeling reference.

Browse away!

Thousands of additional photos have been added. Up to 5,777 now!
It would seem there is no interest in these photos but from a modeling standpoint, I believe they are worthwhile so I'm posting an update for anyone who may have missed my original thread from December, 2016.
Many of these photos wouldn't make the cover of LIFE Magazine but there are some neat railroad scenes here.
A little background on Dr. William Rapp:

Just thought I'd pass the site along to anyone who might want to browse.
Be sure to check out the other albums in the Barriger Library.
