Me too Tony! Maybe santa will bring one for us! It looks like a good buy at 34 and some change! Not familiar with David Ori`s work and have only seen a CSX book he did.

My wife rocks! I mentioned to her "I hear there's a new Chessie System book coming out" and she just slyly says "Oh, hmm. Interesting...". Mwuhaha.
BudMan - I highly recommend the book "Chessie System Cumberland Action" by Thomas Biery. A GREAT find, full color, with interesting narrative captions. Not so much a rivet-counter's guide as much as a color pictorial in some of the best scenery a railroader could want. I love Cumberland; I need to visit there again.
