The fifth in a series of titles covering the Susquehanna, this book features over 180 previously unpublished color photos showcasing the railroad’s major Northern Division territorial expansion in the 1980s and 1990s. Coverage includes both freight and excursion operations on the former Lackawanna Utica and Syracuse Branches north of Binghamton from the 1980s into the 2000s. These are some of the most scenic and least-photographed portions of the NYS&W, and through expertly curated images and accompanying captions, authors Finch and Hoffman delve into the railroad's pivotal role in maintaining rail service to communities and industries across upstate New York. Railroad enthusiasts, history buffs, and fans of upstate New York will find Volume 5 a compelling addition to this popular book series.
This revised second edition features added commentary from Doug Ellison, former Chief Mechanical Officer of the NYS&W.
