Tim Stockwell ~80 pages softcover
Since the railroad era began, New
York State's Capital Region has been an area of convergence -- most
famously for the New York Central, Delaware & Hudson, and the Boston
& Maine. However, from the 1960s through the 1990s, this area
underwent a lot of change. Mergers and abandonments left the Capital
Region railroad scene scaled back at the end of this era. Author Tim
Stockwell -- who was a child in the 1980s and 1990s -- witnessed a lot
of this change, but had not yet picked up a camera. Through the lenses
of photographers like Jim Connor, Jeff Plant, Jeremy Plant, John
Sesonske, Gordy Smith, and Jack Wright, Tim takes us on a journey
through the Capital Region, with special attention paid to lines that no
longer exist.
Volume 2 starts in Albany, then takes a geographical tour south and west of the city.
