Bio
Dave Lathrop
Nick solved some difficult issues for me in finding a lot of archival material about the specific specifications and drawings for a steam locomotive built 90 years ago - and, he did it fast. I'd recommend him by all means.
Peter Osborne
I have had the opportunity to work with Nick for the last year (2015) on a comprehensive institutional history of the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania. He was always helpful, insightful and was always able to find the information I was looking for. The result of our conversations were the inspiration for the title of my book. If you are doing research in the archives at the museum Nick is definitely the person who can help you.
