Everything you need to know about Precision Scheduled Railroading—how it got started, who started it and why, its promises and principles, and what it has become, for better or for worse—is here in this discussion featuring two of PSR’s “founding fathers,” Gil Lamphere and Henry Chidgey, who have more than 75 years of combined railroading experience. This in-depth session with Railway Age Editor-in-Chief William C. Vantuono isn’t a quick listen, but well worth the time. We think you’ll find it informative, educational and fascinating. Gil and Henry have seen and done it all.
