5AFE 1925 Rayne, Louisiana
Notice the statement on the top
left of the card; "Care of Sunset Lines".
The Sunset Lines was a train that would go through town. In the
early years everything surrounded the railroad.
5AFE belonged to RL Ross from Rayne, La. He was a telegraph
operator for Western Union and operated the Ham in his spare
time.
The person who gave me the information was taught by RL how to
build and
use a Ham. He is 88 and remembers the events very well.
Info provided by Tony Olinger of Rayne, LA.
