Thank you all for responding to my inquiry. I shall have to track down a copy of the book. Sounds like it would be an excellent source for modeling.</div>

Terminal, Whitethorne District, Princeton and area branches, Winding Gulf branches and Guyandot River Main and branches. A significant portion of the pics are of equipment in the VGN era or paint. I got lots of modeling ideas and inspiration from this book.

B&W? Is it just roster-shots of engines or does it show a lot of scenery and town scenes?</span></p>
