Does anyone else remember dining car dinners on the New Haven Railroad? The white tablecloths, the clatter of the tracks beneath your feet - and that coffee. Nothing has ever tasted quite like it since. Such a special way to travel. Drop your memories in the comments - I’d love to know I’m not the only one who still thinks about it! 🚂

New Book: Dining aboard the Way of the Zephyrs: Dining Car Recipes of the Burlington Route, April 1, 1948

344 pages, 6″x9″ spiral bound softcover

Aboard the Burlington’s famous Zephyrs, fine dining was as much a part of the journey as the gleaming stainless steel train itself. Dining aboard the Way of the Zephyrs is a faithful reproduction of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad’s original 1948 dining car cookbook, used by the railroad’s chefs during the height of the streamliner era. This authentic reprint preserves the exact recipes once prepared in the Burlington’s rolling kitchens — complete with the straightforward instructions and period flavor of the mid-20th century.

From breakfast staples and elegant entrées to classic desserts served on the Morning and Denver Zephyrs, this volume offers a genuine taste of the CB&Q’s celebrated dining service. Perfect for railroad historians, vintage cookbook collectors, and anyone with an appetite for nostalgia, Dining aboard the Way of the Zephyrs brings the golden age of railroading right to your own kitchen table.

The PRR's Cooking and Service Instructions from April 1947 contains hundreds of recipes that were originally prepared aboard a PRR dining car.

Pete Brill has just announced a new book: The Syracuse Branch DL&W – Volume 1, 1840-1939: Coal/Milk/Soda Ash move between Binghamton, Syracuse & Oswego

Volume I of The Syracuse Branch examines a century of history of the predecessor lines as well as the eventual control by the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, in the period from the 1830’s through the 1930’s, that eventually resulted in the creation of the DL&W/EL’s Syracuse Branch. As such, volume I is filled with text, maps, newspaper articles, government reports, court cases, advertisements, time tables, post cards and other items of the sort one would expect in an historical text covering the construction and operation of the line as well as the customers and their diverse traffic which supported the enterprise.

The Phoebe Snow Company is offering this book at a pre-publication price (the publishing date is about February 10th). You can order a copy here:

The Syracuse Branch DL&W - Volume 1, 1840-1939: Coal/Milk/Soda Ash move between Binghamton, Syracuse & Oswego by Peter Brill Pre-publication pricing - expected release date is February 10. 264 pages, soft cover, indexed, 44 B&W photos, 72 illustrations (mostly postcards, some with prints), 25 ads, 2...
