First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover with mylar covered dust jacket. Jacket has had corners clipped. Blue covers with wear to edges, corners and tail of spine and along spine. Spine cracked to front but pages maintained and intact. Pages with some underlining to text. All very readable. Many illustrations. In this 480-page volume is everything pertinent to the Nicket Plate's life, from the inspection train behind a 4-4-0 which gave the road reality in 1882 to the moment of merger into Norfolk & Western on October 16, 1964. It is a book, then, of a size and quality to give a rare railroad the illumination and distinction called for by its record. Included is a map of The New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad Company, The Lorain & West Virginia Railway Company.

Near fine in very good dw. First edition."Throughout its tumultuous 83-year career the late Nickel Plate Road was never really regarded as an enduring institution.Constructed in a matter of 500 days, the Nickel Plate connected Chicago and Buffalo with a 513-mile road characterized by long tangents, mild grades, and impressive bridges. It was built at great cost through a well-developed region already tapped by many railroads.Lacking even a modest reservoir of captive business, the railroad grubbed out a living in an intensely competitive transportation arena purely on the strength of the service it rendered. Hence this became a proposition dedicated to the science of moving high-grade freight with dependability and dispatch."--From the author's Introduction.
