Veteran Akron Railroad Club member H. Roger Grant appeared on C-SPAN 3 Saturday night presenting a lecture on the rise and decline of electric interurban railways in the United States.
Grant appeared as part of the Lectures in History series.
A railroad historian and the author of numerous books, Grant is now a professor of history at Clemson University and previously taught at the University of Akron.
This lecture usually re-airs at least twice over the weekend and can also be viewed on-line after the first showing.
The lecture was taken from a course that Grant teaches titled U.S. Transportation History.
