(erielack) BR&P Rwy in Color--Volume 4 Partners & Connections

[Smtimko_@_aol.com]

I just received my copy of the above Morning Sun book by Mike  Zollitsch.
 
Mike has outdone himself with this volume.  The book--as stated in the  
title---covers the partners and connections with the BR&P.  That  results in 
about 40 pages dedicated to the Erie RR in Buffalo, Hornell,  Salamanca and 
the Bradford Division.  The photos date from the 1940s with  Berkshires 
arriving at Salamanca, a Mike working the yard at Salamanca, an Erie  steam M of W 
crane, new Erie Alco S2 #504 switching passenger cars at Salamanca,  and 
many, many more area photos.
 
There are photos of the Centennial Train, Baldwin road-switchers working to 
 and from Brockway, photos of Kinzua Bridge in the '50s, and much more.
 
Some of the non-Erie features cover the track arrangement of the  PRR--B&O 
diamond at Machias, NY that was frequently used as an Erie detour  route 
when problems arose between Olean and Salamanca.  The book also  covers the P&S 
and PS&N, B&S, NYC, P&W (B&O), G&W and  much more.
 
Without a doubt, a fine addition to an Erie fan's bookshelf.
