Greenwood Cemetery

5200 Canal Street

New Orleans, Louisiana

 

Greenwood Cemetery was established by the Firemen’s Charitable & Benevolent Association in 1852. Numerous fraternal organizations joined the Volunteer Firemen and Elks in providing memorials to their deceased members. Multivault tombs preserve the history of these organizations and the contributions of their members to New Orleans. The Police Mutual Benevolent Association, the Swiss Society, and the New Orleans Typographical Union are fine examples at Greenwood. The typographical union, formed in 1855, was the first labor union in the region.

Octaves and octagons

This chip had me confused, I could obtain a full-size 0.1" pitch DIP package version, but the pins were not in the same places as the shrink-DIP version that I had removed. I poked around with a diode tester for a while and established the difference was simply that the pins were offset to the right on the full-size chip. If you're wondering where I got the pinout for the smaller chip, it's included in the Roland HP-60 service manual which you can grab here www.synfo.nl/pages/servicemanuals.html

A little history on date nails....

 

Octave Chanute introduced the railroad date nail into the United States - a simple and efficient way of recording the age of railroad ties and other wooden structures by date stamping the heads of nails.

 

The oldest known North American date nail is a 1897 from the Mississippi River & Bonne Terre. It was in 1899 that major railroads begain using nails to date ties with nails: that year the Chicago & Eastern Illinois, the Great Northern, the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, and the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie began nail use. The newest date nail in a tie in North America is an aluminum 01 (2001) from a U.S. Navy track in New Jersey.

 

The use of date nails in american railroad ties declined quite dramatically in the 1950's as by that time, the railroads understood approx how long the ties were lasting which appears to be approx. 45 years.

 

Basically what makes the above pictured nail kind of odd to me, is I've never seen one that new in a common line. The last ones I've been able to locate were 1959's on the Pennsy & B&O Railines. Also the fact it is still intact, and in a railroad tie still in use today..which would put that nail and tie approx 47 years old.

Chanute Air Force Base (1917–1993) is a former United States Air Force base located south of and adjacent to Rantoul, Illinois, about 130 miles (210 km) south of Chicago. Its primary mission throughout its existence was Air Force technical training.

 

Prior to its closing by BRAC in 1993, Chanute was one of the oldest facilities in the United States Air Force. At the time of its closure, Chanute AFB was the U.S. Air Force's third oldest active base and its tennant Chanute Technical Training Center the oldest technical training center in the service.[1]

 

Chanute Field was initially established on 21 May 1917, being one of the initial World War I-era installations of the then-U.S. Army Air Service. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chanute_Air_Force_ Base
