Mike Bednar started his career in the 1960s on Lehigh Valley, running through Conrail and Reading & Northern into the 1980s. He knows railroading inside and out, from dispatching busy main lines to running heavy tonnage over the mountains. His storytelling with a touch of humor will make you feel like you're sitting right there with him in the tower, diesel cab, or caboose. This new hardcover edition is illustrated with more than 175 rare color images of Northeastern railroad action.
