Pennsylvania Railroad is a look at the influential railroad that blanketed the east. Its vast holdings of rail lines, mines, real estate and more blanketed 13 states. The 10,000-mile rail system served the most populous part of the country and connected major industrial and commercial centers. Authored by noted railroad experts Mike Schafer and Brian Solomon, this book examines the history of the PRR from its humble beginnings to its end with the Penn Central merger in 1968, and includes a look at surviving PRR legacies. Hardbound, 160 pages.
