An Interesting View of Railroad Diners,
By Frederick S. Goethel "wildcatcreekbooks" (Central Valley, CA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Dinner Is Served: Fine Dining Aboard the Southern Pacific (Hardcover)
I found this book to be interesting and enjoyable. It is a detailed history of dining car service aboard the Southern Pacific from the beginning of the service until the service was terminated...along with SP passenger service. I found the information on how food was obtained and stored, the use of commisaries, as well as preperation of food prior to departure to be an interesting look at how the railroads handled food service. The book was written in any easy style and is an enjoyable read. It is a bit pricey, but aren't most specialty books?

Disappointing,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dinner Is Served: Fine Dining Aboard the Southern Pacific (Hardcover)
The book is a disappointing review of the Southern Pacific food service from years ago. There is little review of receipes and little comment on foods served. It's more of a historical perspective of the railroad food services. It's an expensive book ofering little to the romance of railroads and dining.
