Announcing Steam Memories of Lindsay

For the past five months, I have been working ahead on the next volume, which will deal with the network of branchlines surrounding Lindsay, Ontario. We have prepared a print flyer which will be sent to all recent (past three years) direct order customers. You can also read about the book on our webpage.

For folks going to the Lindsay model railway show this weekend, Charles Cooper has kindly assisted us in making sure a supply of flyers are available there.

Publication of this volume will be in the fall of 2009, and you can pre-order a copy (at a discount) until September 30 by ordering online or submitting payment via our mail order form (or wait for your flyer in the mail). At the moment I am working on the Midland (town) and Midland Subdivision chapters. This has involved unravelling and explaining the fascinating story of bulk commodities shipped off the CNR Midland Sub: grain from the Midland elevators, coal from Century Coal at Midland, and limestone from Uhthoff.

I should also mention that we are down to about a dozen copies of To Stratford Under Steam.
