Dear all,

Some of you might have heard of the project of Amsterdam based artist Rein Jelle Terpstra, who is working on a book about the Robert F. Kennedy funeral train that made its way from NYC to Washington DC on June 8, 1968. The book will be entirely based on the photographs that people, who stood along the railroad that day, have sent him.

I am assisting him in this project, and I might need your help.
Although the book will be published soon, we still want to take a last chance to ask you for any contribution. Maybe you have a photograph or film that was made that day, an interesting story to tell, or maybe you even remember the time the train passed through your town. Any kind of help is very welcome!

You can contact us via email: [email protected]

Thank you very much and I look forward to your responses.
Isabel
