The New York Central System operated in eleven great states, and the big, 48-page 3^rd Quarter Issue of Central Headlight will take you to four of those states with articles about Central’s operations in a small Ohio town; an attempt to rescue the first Hudson from the scrap line at Gardenville, New York; a look at rail crossing changes at Albion, Michigan; and a steam machinist’s memories of the roundhouse at Mattoon, Illinois. You’ll also visit Haldimand County, Ontario, Canada; and, really going far afield, you’ll get a close look at a very sizeable chunk of New York Central history found in Fairview, Oklahoma! All this, not to mention four color pages featuring our 2016 Annual Convention.
