This is really old news by now, but if you are still interested, a reprint of Gene Hull's classic "Shortline Railroads of Arkansas," can be ordered from White River Productions, Inc. 24632 Anchor Ave., Bucklin, MO 64631 or call 877-787-2467. Cost is $24.95 plus $5 shipping. This info quoted from May 2000 issue of the ARKANSAS RAILROADER - Little Rock Chapter of NRHS. Good Luck, Russell Tedder

"Shortline Railroads of Arkansas" by Clifton Hull is a hard book to find, but I thought I saw a paperback reissue at a train shop, so maybe it's available again.
