I remember that museum and then-owner Rick and Allen.

I met them in 1989, few months after I arrived in the States and 100 years after Johnstown flood. Rick showed me the museum and asked me what did I think, just few months out of China, I told him 1) is this the only major disaster in 200 year history? 2) very impressed with railway network. never thought train whistle can be used that way. 3) 2000 people is nothing if it took place in China. I guess my asnwer surprised him heck of it.

Rick and Allen are my friend's friends. We even attended that year's Holloween party at their house and cracked some good George Okiki (spelling? a big scandal in 1989 in PA) jokes.
