About this title

Synopsis

This book provides a type by type survey of the best American locomotives, discussing the great railroad companies, the manufacturers, the improvements in technology that allowed such leaps as increased pulling power, reliability, and serviceability, and which locomotives survive today. It does so by means of a wonderful collection of photographs, contemporary and modern.
