The third in a series of titles covering the Susquehanna from the 1940s through 1990s, this book features over 150 previously unpublished black & white and color photos covering the railroad’s west end. Coverage includes both freight and passenger operations from the railroad’s earliest diesel operations through its rebirth in the 1980s as a regional carrier. This book includes rare photographic coverage of the NYS&W main line from Butler to Sparta (out of service in 1971 and reactivated in 1986), the western end of the main line from Sparta to Hainesburg (abandoned in 1962), and the Hanford Branch from Beaver Lake to Hanford (abandoned in 1958).
