Delaware & Hudson Railway Beware of Sharks - Paperback
by Jay Winn (Author)
The Delaware and Hudson Railway's brief love affair with a pair of old Baldwin "Sharknose" Diesels reads like a Fairy Tale. Purchased new by the New York Central in 1951, traded in to GE and left for dead in 1966, resurrected by the Monongahela Railway in 1967, sent once again to a scrapper in 1972, yet again saved from a scrapper in 1974, elevated to celebrity status by the Delaware & Hudson as the "Cinderella's in Silver & Blue" only to fall from grace in 1978, be sold off, used and abused finally to once again return to obscurity by the early 1980's. The remarkable longevity of these two old girls is the stuff of legend. Although much has been written about them over the years, (often by me), the complete story never seems to be all in one place. I had an enduring personal connection with the sharks from the very beginning of their resurrection by the D&H and actually witnessed much of their story. For that reason I have decided to write the complete story as I know it. Jay Winn 2017
