They show up occasionally at various train shows and used book dealers. I've seen them in the $50 - $75 range. I don't think there were many copies produced in the original run

Mr Sheppard told me in 2003 he's working on an expanded version of the 1974 Guide, perhaps with additional abandoned routes, etc. No promise on when it might be released.

Other Sheppard works include Trackside Terminals, which is a highly detailed view of the Hoboken - Jersey City - Weehawken coastline and the Croxton yard. Also long out of print.

Thanks for the reply.

If anyone has William Sheppard's e-mail address that would also be most appreciated.

Thanks! Going to that website I was able to find "Erie New York Division Interlocking Stations Diagram Book" and "Tidewater Terminals of the Erie Lackawanna" (which I bought), but not the Schematic Track Diagram book, so I'm still on the lookout!
