Five Stars Jo loved it. Nice Book RS Nice Book. Money well spent. Thanks. Floss said Ulster County Railroads. I was eager to get and read this book, but was disappointed. It seems to be just a collection of pictures and many of these I have seen in other books. Old pictures with new headings is not my idea of a book to collect. I was sadly disappointed.
