As an attachment is a .jpg scan of my Grandfathers’ “The Order of Railroad Telegraphers” membership card. This one covers the period to December 31, 1958. My Grandfather was a Freight Agent with the Dominion Atlantic Railway (CPR) stationed in Yarmouth , NS . I do not recall him ever having anything to do with the telegraph service. The freight shed was a completely different building from the train station / telegraph office. As a young lad, I visited him at work on a number of occasions. He retired at 65 (1959). He joined the ranks of Silent Keys in late 1972, just a few months before I joined CNT as a Microwave Tech in the spring of 1973.
