Hello,

I am looking for photos of Susquehanna Railroad cars used in service from the 1890s - 1930s. Does anyone have photos of these cars? I am particularly looking for information about the type of passenger cars used on the Hanford Branch.

Thank you for your time.

Carstens has an excellent book featuring many great photos from the period you're asking about. I learned a lot about the Hanford Branch operations, and the photos are crisp and clear.
