5.0 out of 5 stars Great LIRR Book!, January 12, 2008
By Jeffrey Ornstein (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In keeping with the high standards of the illustrated pictorials from Dover, the LIRR in Early Photographs does not disappoint.

This illustrated history covers 90 years of operations of the railroad, from 1865 to 1955. It's all here - early steam, 20th century steam, electrics, deisels, nautical operations, snowfighting, structures and wrecks. Plus a whole lot more.

Lots of very interesting photos, many of them never seen before depict the colorful history of the LIRR before the MTA took over.

A must have for any rail historian or Long Island Railroad enthusiast.
