Pictured is the router which sent the 1st internet connection from NYC to Tokyo. These were sold out of a basement office of a home in Rahway NJ. It's signed by everyone who worked for Cisco Systems in 1989. It was given to my dad when he retired in 1999 for his work in establishing the internet.Submitted by TriggerTough t3_10kdpgl in newjersey

Alexander Shipley, who is the Rahway historian, may be interested in that router.
He doesn't use email much but he is the director of the Merchants & Drovers Tavern Museum on St. Georges Ave. Give him a ring at (732) 381-0441.
Did you know that Rahway was also home to the first lab of inventor Nikolai Tesla? There is a statue of him in front of the Rahway Train Station.
