I just found a picture of another quilt similar to the Railroad Quilt in your collection. It is pictured in the book Kentucky Quilts 1800-1900. They called it New York Beauty and dated it circa 1875. Again, it is so much a part of your quilts history to have the name that the family or maker gave it.

Sorry about the blurry pics..
