Hi Everyone,
I wrote a book about the Northeast Corridor: both the rail line and the region it built. My book begins before the invention of railroads and ends New Year’s Morning 2021 in Moynihan Train Hall. I wrote this for everyone: fans, historians, professionals, and most of all riders who don’t know the story behind their commutes. You can learn more from the publisher website (https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/bo ... 86389.html), including kind words from author Les Standiford and Amtrak archivist Richard Slattery. If you’d like to buy a copy, use the code UCPNEW for 30% off at checkout.
I also want to say thanks. I've been reading this message board (including its pre-2004 form) since I was in high school in the 90s, and have never gone more than a few days without checking in. I've learned an incredible amount from you all. I included a shout-out to the group in my acknowledgements but can’t begin express my gratitude.
Sending all warm wishes from Buffalo,
Dave
