Review of Jerry Joe Jacobson A Tribute DVD

 4 of 5 (1)
Jerry's most visible legacies are represented by a beautiful array of steam locomotives together with the well-designed home in which they are displayed and maintained, but it is the people whose lives he changed in whom his true spirit resides. Military and rail historians, doctors and nurses, students, members of the Amish community near his home in Sugarcreek, Ohio, and families as far away as Russia and China were among the many who came to know Jerry. Certainly many others have known - and will continue to know - of him.

Through interviews and personal recollections, this short video tribute presents the Ohio Central chapter of his life. After sale of the Railroad in September 2008, Jerry devoted much attention to construction of an authentic roundhouse complete with working back shop, in order that future generations might appreciate "the most beautiful creation man has ever made"
