By [Railroad]
8vo, pamphlet, original printed wrappers, 20 pp. Wrappers with some tears and chips at the extremities, a 1x3 piece missing from top of front wrapper, notation on front wrapper, front wrapper and title page partially detached, small tear in the middle that runs through, not affecting text, or particularly visible, middle crease, number and library stamp on title page, some minor soiling, normal aging; still a good or better copy. The Philadelphia and Reading represents one of the nation's oldest railroads, with its roots going back to 1832. The Atlantic and Great Western is a railroad that would merge and morph several times, and become the New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio Railroad. The present agreement is actually between several railroad companies, and the goal appears to be to share rail and transport to Philadelphia.
