Crew Caller

The Crew Caller was the official newsletter of West Jersey Chapter, from September, 1956, through June, 1995, after which it was succeeded by West Jersey Rails Quarterly. In January, 1974, the Crew Caller adopted a new format, featuring articles on railroad history, current events, and Chapter happenings. The Crew Caller was normally issued monthly, except July and August, and was typically printed on 8½" × 14" coated stock and folded lengthwise, resulting in four 8½" × 7" pages per issue. Recently we found of cache of three Crew Caller issues from 1991 in our storage locker, and are making them available for sale.

Issues of the Crew Caller are available through our online store while supplies last.

Issues are $1.00 each plus shipping & handling and sales tax where applicable.
