5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely awesome!!, December 30, 2002
This review is from: Passenger Trains of Yesteryear: Chicago Westbound (Golden Years of Railroading) (Paperback)
Being born much too late to witness the glory years of the railroad, I love books which show what the good old days looked like. Some of the scenes in the book are familar to me, and that also adds to the book's appeal. This book shows both the machines and the people affiliated with the railraod. Highly recommended.
