@PRR Man posted:If you'd like insight as to what the executive thinking was at the PRR. I suggest reading 'Conquering Gotham' about the planning and construction of the tunnels and infrastructure into NYC and L.I. Excellent work.
I found the tunnel construction as detailed in Triumph V to be very interesting so your post caught my eye. I came close to picking up a copy of Conquering Gotham , but a few of the reviews are not very flattering and said it was more about politics than engineering. What’s your take Chris? Does it include a good description of the engineering involved? Drawings, maps, photos, diagrams?
