June 2019: Davis Strench takes us on a tour of the CSX P&A Subdivision through Florida’s Panhandle along the Gulf Coast. We swing through historic Strasburg, Pennsylvania, one of the stops on our upcoming fall heritage tour. Bruce Kelly looks back at his time in Attica, while James Belmont shares his Portfolio of classic photography from scenic Utah. All this and more in the May issue of Railfan & Railroad!
