Description

This book chronicles the last twenty or so years of the Lehigh Valley Railroad. The author grew up along the Lehigh Valley mainline, and also worked for the railroad. The book, written from a railroaders perspective, gives the reader an insight into and an appreciation of what it was like to work for and operate trains over The Route of the Black Diamond.
This book is not the typical run-of-the-mill color book about a railroad. It is a book on the history of the people who ran this colorful and scenic line as seen through the eyes of someone who loved it. The book is written as a tribute to the employees of the Lehigh Valley Railroad. It was their spirit and will that kept the railroad operating as long as it did. Not many railroads were blessed with such good people.
Told in 152 pages, 290 color pictures, and 20 maps and other supporting material.
Hardcover; Author: Mike Bednar
