[Cz-L] Emanuel A. Ziffer, Railway Tycoon and Honorary Citizen of Czernowitz

Czernowitzers...

Realitatea Evreiasca [The Jewish Realty] is the official monthly publication of the Federation of the Jewish Communities of Romania. On page 5 of its February 2013 edition

http://www.jewishfed.ro/fcer/public_html/downloads/realitatea/RE400-401.pdf

we discover an article (Romanian) on "Emanuel Alois Ziffer, Railway Tycoon and Honorary Citizen of Czernowitz". He was the founder of the railways in Bukovina. It's my friend Paul Brascanu from Vatra Dornei, a passionate third generation railwayman and author of the book "Iron Railway Fueled by Gunpowder",

who launched the article in "The Jewish Reality" and who is preserving Emanuel Alois Ziffer's memory, looking for a sponsorship for the reconstruction of the E. A. Ziffer monument in Vatra Dornei.

Thank you, Paul, for your dedication and your outstanding engagement.
