My copy of the Minnesota/Dakota atlas from SPV was not missing any pages but I did notice that it is missing a few rail lines.  One that comes to mind is the CNW line from Madeila, MN to Fairmont, MN.  Can't remember what the other one was.

My two week old copy of Arizona and New Mexico has all it's pages. Has anyone heard that SPV will not be printing any new updated editions of these atlas.

**it happens, and they may already be aware of the problem.  My suggestion would be to contact the publisher -- it could be a simple printing error, and they will probably offer a free replacement.

Sounds like you're missing a signature. I have a complete set for the US and a couple from Canada. None are missing any pages.

SPV rail atlases: missing pages ever?
Posted by caboose63 on Tuesday, April 7, 2015 5:56 PM

has anyone ever had a problem with buying SPV railroad atlases, only to get home to find several pages missing? I bought one of their arizona & new mexico atlases last week, only to find out that it was missing pages 16-20 and 45-48. Of all of the volumes i have bought over the years, this is the first this has happened.
