I also picked up a few new books-
"Passenger Train Consists of the 1970s"- A pretty good book containing many consists with dates and specific road numbers, though disappointingly it cuts off around 1975, despite being published in 1981. Still useful for the passenger modeler of that time period though!
"Conrail Atlantic Region In Color: Volume 2 1979-1981"- Like the first volume, this book DID NOT disappoint! the first 30 pages are everything I love to model, and the rest of it is pretty fantastic as well. The stories of the author's time at the "40 office" dealing with train mishaps are also informative and entertaining.
I don't have this book yet, but I noticed in May that morning sun will be publishing a book, "Conrail Under Pennsy Wires". Morning sun is really knocking them out of the park lately! Clearly, that book was made for me. They only way they could do it better is to have a New Jersey Commuter Region book... and this time get the names of the Arrows and Silverliners straight.
