Title: Rutland in Color Author: Jordan, Philip R. Publisher: Morning Sun Books, Tuscon, Arizona, 2003 ISBN: 9781582481036 Condition: VERY GOOD SHIPS FROM ALBERTA Reader Comment: Great book. Considering how long the Rutland has been gone, it is amazing that were so many color slides and photos available. Obviously the slant was on the portion of the RUT from Burlington and south, and especially from Rutland and south. A shame that there weren't more photos of the northern and western part of the RR, but nonetheless, this book makes a great addition to my collection.
