The Burlington(and C&S FW&D) modeler/railfan has been
blessed during the last 10 years or so by very good
photo books by Mike Spoor, Al Holck, and several
others. They provide a wealth of unrefutable info on
operations, equipment, right of way, etc. Each book
provides at least 200+ photos, all on good color. I
count at least 15 books, if you add the b&w books of
the same time frame, the count tops 20. If you don't
have them, get them. Most questions you have will be
answered. GN, NP and others have also had a vast
amount of these kind of books also, but, I think the
Q's number is the greatest. -- CY.
