This is an older image from the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn Michigan. I have so much to share from there if I want because that place was just filled with very neat displays of all kinds of steam engines and transportation and just Americana type items. I love old gas pumps and thought this display was very neat with the sleek gas truck in it as well.

I am the new host of Transport Tuesday over on Google + so there I will be sharing transport related posts on Tuesday. I probably won't share that type on this blog every time but I thought this one was a rather interesting subject. The Railway Express Agency was the UPS or Fed Ex of it's day. It operated from 1918 to 1975 when airplane transportation of packages finally forced it out of business. This was a beautifully restored REA truck that I saw at the Western Minnesota Steam Thresher's Reunion last year and had to photograph.
