SCENES ALONG THE RAILS
SCENES ALONG THE RAILS is the anchor title of a continuing series of books devoted to the
exploration of northeastern railroads in the 1875-1925 era. Period photographs, many appearing in
print for the first time, feature stations, motive power, freight and passenger trains, community
and trackside industries, "main street" views, and vacation retreats. The regional development of
each line is summarized to provide historical background. Wrapped around the pictures, the main
text is made up of descriptive captions that personalize and add depth to the given scenes.
Detailed maps are included for quick reference.
Volume I explores the anthracite region of northeast Pennsylvania. THE DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA &
WESTERN RAILROAD'S SYRACUSE DIVISION is our first entry into New York State. Information about
each title is presented below.
This series is printed on acid-free 80# gloss enamel paper in a hardbound format with a dust
jacket. Prices are indicated under each book's individual description. Autographed copies are
