it's been a slow year for railroad guides, primarily since I lost a bunch of files earlier this year and it took a while to get them and my web site program back. But I now have a Pennsylvanian/Keystone guide from Pittsburgh to New York -- there is a lot of geology here-- sorry about that! This is the link:

For some reason, the maps linked to in the Snapfish link did not copy in order. I will try and get that straightened out soon.

I don't know how many more of these guides I will be publishing -- a lot depends on the future of AMTRAK under President Trump and his Republican Congress, plus it is getting to be a “hassle" to publish with the current web site software. BUT STAY TUNED!!!

Nice job, Rich. Incredible amount of detail. When I pulled it up the photo was the old K-4 rather than a Geep. I guess the steam engine is still being restored in Altoona?? Was your photo taken from Amtrak's Broadway Ltd?

Let's hope Mr. Moorman figures out a way to make the connection for through cars between the Capitol and Pennsylvanian finally happen.

I enjoyed your recent route guide, Rich. I especially like the historical background information.

Have you ever considered consolidating your routes into a single, purchasable booklet? Possibly with photos to accompany the dialog.

Good job.

Richard

When it comes to politics, turn off the sound and watch the action. That is particularly true of the sounds coming out of the media.

Rich,

I now how you felt. I had to reloaded every story plus the pictures from June of 2015 to the present
while I was on my NRHS Trip last summer. It took a lot of my time but I got through the 88 stories plus my recent Railfanning stories.

Chris
