PCRRHS POST

The POST is the official publication of the PCRRHS. Published three times per year, the POST features articles and photographs about all things Penn Central, including both prototype and model railroading subjects. Regular features include "The Crummy Locker," an ongoing series about PC railroadiana, "The Integration of New Haven Locomotives," covering how the New Haven's motive power fleet was absorbed into Penn Central, and "Captain Jack's Journal," with stories and recollections of working on the Penn Central.

The POST is produced for the PCRRHS by White River Productions. Dale Sanders is the Editor and is assisted by Managing Editor Steve Hipes. If you are interested in contributing to the POST, you may get in touch Steve via our contact page.

Below are listed all issues of the POST published to date. Back copies of all issues are still available (unless otherwise noted on the index pages), and can be ordered from the PCRRHS at the Society Store.
