Book Description

0965862402 978-0965862400 June 1997 1
At the beginning of the Twentieth Century, before good roads were common and everbody owned an automobile, northwestern Ohio was home of the Toledo, Port Clinton and Lakeside Railway, an electric line that began operating in 1905 and didn't entirely close down until 1958, decades after other railways like it were gone.

George W. Hilton wrote The Toledo, Port Clinton and Lakeside Railway, his concise history of the TPC&L, in 1964. Since then, the book has been out of print but widely sought after as one of the best and most interesting books evered offered about northwestern Ohio.

Here is your chance to own a true classic by one of America's foremost transportation authorities--no railroad or history buff should be without it.
