Hi Nancy and all others: I'm interested in the railroad news and indeed any news of Altoona. The Olson-Rieck families that I'm researching were directly involved with the railroad. One of my great-uncles, August Rieck was killed in a train wreck near Hudson, WI on Sept. 9, 1938. A number of the Rieck's were buried somewhere in Eau Claire, even though some of them were not living in the area at the time of their death. I think this list is a great idea; thanks Nance! Reid Olson
