New Book for Sale! The Great Race to the Jersey Shore

by Frank A. Wrabel, 2023

Both the Pennsylvania and the Phila. & Reading railroads fought hard to capture passengers. Buses and autos ate into profits in the 1930s, so the two adversaries merged to survive. This book is the grand story of growth and atrophy of South Jersey rail, to the present day.
