Author David Hutchinson takes the reader on a nostalgictrip on the Reading’s Port Reading Branch and coal terminal at the docks at theend of the branch. Moving to Metuchen, NJ when he was little, like many a younglad in the 1950s with a railroad virtually in his backyard, the author washooked on the romance of trains. And so began a long affair with the Readingand its Port Reading Branch in New Jersey, the quintessential mix of coal andfreight trains, different motive power, a first cab ride, and before and afterConrail. Supplemented with images of structures, facilities, interior shots, motive power, rolling stock, blueprints, and more, this is one man’s comprehensive look at asegment of railroad operations from a time when railroad employees werewelcoming to an inquisitive young person. This is an 86-page oblong softcoverwith b&w and color images. Gloss paper. New shrinkwrapped copy.
