Today, November 3rd, I went to the CNY Train show and met Richard Steinbrenner there who is co-authoring a book with Chris MacDermot on the DL640.
This book will be about the story about Chris MacDermot experiences as a ALCO Service Engineer who traveled all over the country to assist railroads in placing the RS-27's in service.
The book is going to be 90% color with about 150 photos.
It will have the history of all the DL-640's.
It will cover the PRR,LV, CNW, GB&W, Devco,PNC, and Peabody Coal as well as some Alco factory photos.
About 170 pages
Price is expected to be around $ 60-70 dollar range-Not final yet.
Hardcover in landscape format.
Expected to be done by March.
I have seen a proof and it will be well worth the wait.
