Pennsylvania Railroad's New York Division consisted of the area east of Newark, New Jersey. This book is a collection of photos taken mostly by Ed Kaspriske and his friends who used to hang out together and photograph trains. The book is printed on quality, coated paper.
Expect to see GG1's, MU cars, Sharknoses and other passenger locomotives. There is a section on stations.
