This review is from: Rio Grande Southern: Dolores and McPhee (The R.G.S. Story, Vol. 7) (Hardcover)

As is true for all volumes in the RGS Story series, this book is exceptional. It's a study of the Rio Grande Southern railroad, specifically the portion of the railroad around the towns of Dolores and McPhee (both in southerwestern Colorado, near Durango). There are many hundreds photos and pages of historical accounts not only of the railroad's operations in these towns, but also of the towns themselves. A must for any RGS fan, or anyone interested in the history of this part of the country during the 1890s - 1950s.
