Synopsis
"Printed on 80# paper and 100# cover stock, this new 96 page, horizontal-format (10.875"W x 8.375" H) saddlestitched softcover book by Jeff Scherb features newly redrawn PRR plans of trackside structures such as signal & switch buildings, passenger stations, combination stations, yard & shop buildings and freight houses. A "must own" for PRR enthusiasts and modelers, this book is also a great resource for any modeler interested in scratchbuilding or detailing structures. Working from original drawings and photos, Jeff recreated these historical drawings using CAD software so they could be compiled into a practical and comprehensive format useful to both the PRR historian and modeler. While many books have extensively examined the motive power and rolling stock of the Pennsylvania, little attention has been paid to the plethora of standard equipment found along the side of the track. With this book, historians and modelers interested in prototypically recreating these features, now have a practical reference guide. This new volume is the companion to Trackside on the Pennsylvania - Standard Plans of the Standard Railroad of the World: Structures, Bridges, Signals and Signs. Published in 2002, that volume featured redrawn PRR standard plans of trackside structures, bridges & culverts, signals, and signs."
