Overall it was pretty good, lots of ideas, but you'll still have to do more research. I agree with Dale there should have been more real photos to compare with. The one thing I felt it lacked was the late fifties,'57, class 1 NYO&W abandoned,Highways were getting better,trucking was taking lots of rail traffic, more commuters were taking the buick to work,airlines were grabbing both mail and passengers for cross country traffic,it would have been a great seguay to the sixties,2nd generation power,less maintenance, mergers etc. The early fifties were great but as the decade got older there were many changes to come.
