Over the past two decades, author John Ham has produced several books about the New York Central Railroad in New York State. His most recent publication was the book about the Central's Main Line entitled From Grand Central to Albany. This title continues the tour of the New York Central main line, continuing west from Albany and SchenectÂady along the scenic Mohawk River Valley to Syracuse and on through the fertile farmlands of central New York to Rochester and finally, Buffalo. The focus of this book is on the New York Central's "Glory Years" using a multitude of fine steam and early diesel photographs taken along the Water Level Route by some of the most noted rail photographers of the 20th Century. Using their original negatives and prints, they have been graciously loaned to the author by difÂferent Historical Societies and collectors. This 384-page volume contains not only superb New York Central photos, but images of the Central's Branch Lines, other connecting railroads and industries that were served by the Central in one capacity or another. There are more than 650 images between the covers. We hope you will take this journey along the sceÂnic Mohawk Valley with us and enjoy it as much as we have while researching and assembling this book.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Hardcover, 336 pages, 600 Color and B&W Photographs, Illustrations, Maps, Diagrams, and Locomotive Roster Data. Over the last five years, author John Ham has produced four books partnering with railroad historian and writer Roger Liller, who grew up along the New Haven Railroad in Connecticut and has spent his life researching the railroads of New England. His knowledge of and memorabilia collection concerning the railroads in the Berkshires gave rise to this publication about the Boston and Albany Railroad. John decided to focus this book on the Boston &Albany's steam era "Glory Years", relying heavily on the scenes taken in the Berkshires. He was able to obtain a multitude of quality steam and early diesel photos that were taken over the years by some of the most noted rail photographers of that period. This 336-page publication contains not only Boston &Albany Main Line photos, but images of its branch lines, major connecting railroads, and the cities and towns that were served by the B&A in one capacity or another. More than 120 stations are seen on the pages and with 600 photos, maps and timetables are between its covers. We hope you will take this journey from Albany to Boston through the scenic Berkshires with us and enjoy it as the authors had while assembling and producing this long overdue book. This book includes photographs by renowned rail photographers Richard Hover and the late Dewey McIlwee. The book shows more than 120 station stops on the B&A's main line and her several branch lines, along with significant photographic coverage of Albany, Pittsfield, Springfield, Worcester, and Boston.
