On the PBS website, there is a great documentary about the Pennsylvania Railroad, the engineering feat of tunneling under the Hudson River, and the building of a fabulous train station in Manhattan that was later torn down, sparking an architectural preservation movement. American Experience: The Rise and Fall of Penn Station. I think you’d enjoy it.
Those letters! I am SHOCKED! (Ha - it'd a lot more than THAT...)
