One of the hallmarks of our Society is its members' publication, the Susquehanna Reflector. As we have grown from a railfan’s meet to an operating historic railroad operation, it has grown from a Xeroxed couple pages into a color magazine, but over those years, we have gained and lost many of our members.
The Reflector is named after the original publication of the Susquehanna Railroad for its employees and, at times, has reprinted articles from the original publication.
Now, the Reflector is archived in electronic form so that all of our newer members can look back at previous issues, from the beginning, and follow our progress.
The Susquehanna Reflector is the intellectual property of the New York, Susquehanna & Western Technical & Historical Society, Inc. and is intended for limited distribution to Society members.
The Reflector is copyrighted © 1989-2018 and may not be reproduced without permission of the NYS&WT&HS as well as possibly individual writers and editors who contributed therein.
