An excellent photo coverage of the Third Avenue Railway.,

This review is from: Metropolitan New York's Third Avenue Railway System (Images of Rail) (Paperback)
I grew up in New York City and was fortunate to have been able to ride and photograph Third Avenue Railway streetcars in the 1940's and early 1950's (called Third Avenue Transit by that time). Charles Ballard has given us a fine Arcadia book with excellent photos of Third Avenue cars in Manhattan, The Bronx and Westchester County.I recommend this book highly for anyone interested not only in the streetcars of New York but also of the way the city looked over 50 years ago.I never cease to be amazed at the increasing number of fine Arcadia books in their "Images Of Rail" and "Images Of America" series that have been appearing these days. Some of these books cover streetcar and traction operations in a number of different cities and this photo coverage of the Third Avenue Railway ranks with the best of them.
