About this Item

This is a first edition (1990) of Classic North American Steam, by the Canadian train expert Nils Huxtable. This stunning volume is a pictorial tribute to working steam in North America, beautifully illustrated and lovingly told.

Includes prime examples of accurate restorations that illustrate the development of steam locomotives while evoking the mood of this exciting period in North American History. Filled with discussions of the dedicated preservationists who have kept steam alive in an era when the cost of overhauling and maintenance has become an extravagance. More than 100 pristine, black-and-white photographs capture some of the most beautiful and historic steam locomotives in operation today.

128 pages, 10 1/2" x 14 1/2".
