Brass Railroad Baggage Tag

Went out hunting this afternoon with my hunting partner. He found two wheats to my one. But that was okay. I also found an old cosmetics case which will need some cleaning up. My best find was an old watch fob or so I thought. Upon doing a little research, I realized I had found an old railroad baggage tag. This tag has the name Interurban on it which is an old railroad branch that ran from Corsicana to Dallas between 1913 to 1941. 25-30 years ago, my hunting partner Jerry found an old railroad token from this same railroad.

Nice :thumbup:

I like finding stuff like that....it seems a more direct/human connection to one who handled it last and lost it.
Kind of like time-traveling, lol.

Those are some nice finds. Should be a lot of other goodies there.
