In Memory of James T. Bradley
 
![]() Garland & Northeastern switch engine in Dallas, Tx. April 1993. |
Mr. James T. "Jim" Bradley, a Texas railroader and author, passed away on June 1, 2005.
I did not know James personally, but I did meet him once, on an afternoon of railfanning around Dallas' Tower 19
in April of 1993. He graciously invited me aboard his crew's switch engine and allowed me to take his
photograph (part of an assignment for one of my college photography classes) as he took a break on the steps of
Dallas Garland & Northeastern GP7 2022.
Author and rail historian Steve Goen shared the following words with the Railspot list and other internet lists... I found his heartfelt comments to be an appropriate tribute to Mr. Bradley. Steve has granted me permission to post his comments here. - WSC (Please scroll down to read Mr. Goen's comments.) |
I wanted to let everyone on Railspot,
the MKT site, and the RITS List know
that James T. (Jim) Bradley passed away yesterday (June 1, 2005). James was well known in
local railroad circles and will be deeply missed by all.
