I was told it was about $1500 but, yes, it's not a lot. I thought the DM&IR book was a bit homogenous with mostly SD9s but okay. GN in color is excellent. Jim Boyd's SP books likewise. I also really liked the trackside New Haven book that covered the earlier era. Tracksides Niagara Peninsula and British Columbia are excellent too.
