3.0 out of 5 stars
Lima,
By John Galt (St. Augustine, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Building a Lima Locomotive: The Steam Locomotive Construction Process of Lima Locomotive Works During 1924 (Paperback)
A small book on the construction of steam locomotives at Lima in or around 1924. The book discusses each of the major shops involved in the construction and has a few B&W pictures of each shop from the period. The author also discusses some of the working conditions for the workers as well as the make up of the work force. The book is only 88 pages so you won't get an exhaustive reference work or large number of pictures. But, it is not a bad book if you want some good general info on Lima from the 20's. The majority of the pictures seem to be of 2-8-2 construction at the time, with one or two Shay's towards the back when they mention that separate shop. My local library was able to find me a copy to read.
