by Frank Garon

Pages: 90

The third in a series of titles covering Conrail’s first years of operations (1976-1982), this book features more of the finest in early Conrail photography. The book covers Conrail’s “Rainbow Years” during contracted commuter operations in New Jersey, when motive power in a variety of patched-out color schemes from NJDOT and predecessor railroads operated along the Raritan Valley and North Jersey Coast Lines. A smattering of freshly painted NJDOT locomotives, as well as other railroads’ locomotives that were purchased to alleviate power shortages, added to the color palette. This book features over 140 full-color images of Conrail’s unique Rainbow Years.

Since its formation in 1937, the Pinsly Railroad Company has been one of the most well-known owners and operators of short line and regional railroads in the eastern United States. From the plethora of New England roads acquired and operated in the 1950s/60s to the 1980s/90s operations in the southeast, Sam Pinsly's railroad empire grew to cover fourteen different railroads in eight states. Familiar railroads that bore the famous Pinsly red/yellow/black paint scheme (like the Montpelier & Barre, Claremont & Concord, St. Johnsbury & Lamoille County, Arkansas Midland, and Florida Central/Midland/Northern) are all featured in this book. Now owned and operated by the third generation in the Pinsly family line, the Pinsly Railroad Company still exists today, operating the Pioneer Valley Railroad in Massachusetts. This book, comprising nearly a decade of work and research by both authors, is the authorized history of the company produced with the cooperation of the Pinsly Railroad Company. It covers the history and operations of all fourteen Pinsly railroads from 1937 to present, complete with maps and never-before-published black & white and color photography.
