Handsomely done history of the beloved and beautiful California Zephyr, the silver streak passenger service run by the Burlington, Rio Grande and Western Pacific. The book describes predecessor trains, the origin of the train, the route along the main line and through the Feather River Canyon, the Zephyrettes, and provides a careful explanation of the slow unraveling of the Western Pacific's support for the train until the final ICC approval of discontinuance. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. With roster and schematic diagrams of the cars. 104 pages.
