Pennsylvania Railroad's Conway Yard is one of, if not the most important rail yard in America. This book explores the reason why it was built and studies the complex series of PRR lines that encircled and worked in tandem with Conway. It also considers many of the factors how, during the PRR's modern era, Conway evolved with the needs of the times.
