The Anthracite Railroads Historical Society, Inc. (ARHS) is hosting its semi-annual fund raising event on Saturday, May 2, 2026: 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM. Come out and enjoy our property located at scenic Lehigh Gap, adjacent to the Appalachian Trail and the Delaware & Lehigh Rail Trail.

We are having a Spring Clearance Sale!

Our sizable inventory of previously owned books will have special reduced pricing: hardcover titles will be $10 and softcover $4. ARHS designated “premium books” (e.g., “Perfecting the American Steam Locomotive” by J. Parker Lamb, “Where the Rails Meet the Sea” by Michael Krieger) will be priced significantly less than current market prices. We have Morning Sun Books. Additionally, FD&S magazine back issues will be discounted 50%; ARHS HO-scale freight car models and structure kits will be reduced 10% from list prices.

The above sale prices are applicable only to in-person purchases.

ARHS books, including the “Jersey Central New Jersey mainline and branch track diagrams”, “Jersey Central Pennsylvania Division Scrapbook”, “Reading MoW infrastructure drawings”, and Peter Bill’s latest titles: “The D&LW Syracuse Branch, Volumes 1 & 2”, will be available at regular prices. Augmenting these books will be the last of our inventory of DVDs, featuring presentations from past ARHS conventions.

Purchasing here will save shipping charges. Cash, check, or credit cards are accepted.
