Great fun to see pictures of area from the past and knowing what they look like today.It is great to learn the history of certain buildings and roads. It helps explain why things are the way they are today.Finally; there are some abandoned rail lines in this area and now I know when they were active; the route and why they stopped being used.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. PerfectBy Scott DVery nice book. Has a lot of different content that I havent seen in other books. This book is a must to complement your collection of New Jersey railroad books. You get a sampling of many different railroads in the state; not just focused on one particular railroad.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
