Received a copy of Lehigh River Valley Trackside with Randolph Kulp.The book is authored by Douglas E.Peters,published by Morning Sun Books.
Just wanted to pass on that this book is a great addition to anyone's RDG library.The book contains lots of RDG pics along with CNJ and LV.

JPM media has announced Railfanning With The Bednars Vol.6.It deals with the start up of Conrail.The trailer on the web site shows quite a bit of RDG power.Looks like another great addition to my library.

For those of you who purchased the RDG heritage unit I see Intermountain will be offering their ES44AC loco painted in the Bee Line scheme #8113.Couple this unit to the previously released 1067 and it could present a picture of what might have been the look of the RDG in 2014.

Thanks for the heads up about Railfanning the Reading, Chris. I received an email from John Pechulis Mediia early this morning informing me of the video's availability. I ordered mine immediately. I'm thrilled to see that there's footage of the Perkiomen Branch mixed, as well as action on the North Penn.
