Neil Finch and Carolyn Hoffman softcover
The fifth in
a series of titles covering the Susquehanna, this book features over
150 previously unpublished color photos showcasing the railroad’s major
Northern Division territorial expansion in the 1980s and 1990s. Coverage
includes both freight and excursion operations on the former Lackawanna
Utica and Syracuse Branches north of Binghamton from the 1980s into the
2000s. These are some of the most scenic and least-photographed
portions of the NYS&W, and through expertly curated images and
accompanying captions, authors Finch and Hoffman delve into the
railroad's pivotal role in maintaining rail service to communities and
industries across upstate New York. Railroad enthusiasts, history buffs,
and fans of upstate New York will find Volume 5 a compelling addition
to this popular book series.
