A Classic Reference on America's Finest Steam Power,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Pennsy Power: Steam and Electric Locomotives of the Pennsylvania Railroad, 1900-1957 (Hardcover)
Pennsy Power is the beginning volume of this indispensable steam reference series, the most useful resource and summary of the best of America's steam power, and state of the art electric locomotion. Extensive research and testing in the Pennsylvania Railroad's engineering department, and in cooperation with other builders, resulted in the the most powerful and efficient steam power for the many varied applications on the Pennsy - "The Standard Railway of The World" .The book is well written and organized, and in its various printings remains a true Classic - timeless in its reference value and always attracts our interest, as we study the amazing power of steam locomotives, as well as the fine examples of electric motive power.

The Standard Reference, for The Standard Railroad of the World,

This review is from: Pennsy Power: Steam and Electric Locomotives of the Pennsylvania Railroad, 1900-1957 (Hardcover)
Excellent Black and White Photos of Steam and Electric Locos Of The Pennsylvania Railroad.
Excellent resource for Prototype Modelers, Detail Hounds, and Rivet Counters. If you are a SPF (slobbering pennsy freak) this should be your first purchase. Very reasonable cost compared to today's all color books that start in the $60.00 range. Nice collection of Pennsy Paintings reproduced in color at the rear of the book. Old but still the best, first purchase reference book for a Pennsy Library. Buy this book you won't be sorry!

Great book! It features descriptive text and many pictures of every major steam class of the PRR from 1900 onwards and the electrics used through about 1960. A good read for the rail fan!
