I am happy to announce that the new long-expected  "Stocks and Bonds of North American Railroads Part 2"  (author of the first Stocks and bonds of North American Railroads, a collector's guide with values ) is finally going to press at November 17 of this year (2003). The second addition will list 17598 entries of which 13505 are distinct varieties. We have already ordered a (limited) number of books. I hope we have them in around the 2nd week of December, that means that when we are quick you can have your own copy of the book in home at the beginning of January, just before all the Spring-auctions and bourses begin. If you want to be sure to have the new original, please click here and pre-subscribe, if the link doesn't work for you please send an email to: Dajo@rodrigoshares.com. Please do not send any money in advance, wait till we have the books in home and ready for shipment, you will receive an invoice when the time comes. The retail-price is not yet set, but will probaly be in the $35 - $40 range. (Postage NOT included.) We can offer dealers a discount, the more you take, the more discount we can offer.
