| Northern Pacific Railway: Diesel Era, 1945-1970 |
| By : Lorenz Schrenk |
An illustrated history of the Northern Pacific, and its diesel-electric motive power during the years before the merger that created today_s Burlington Northern Railway. As a sequel to the highly regarded Northern Pacific Supersteam Era 1925-1945, this nostalgic volume tells how the NP gradually and then more rapidly, made the transition to diesel-electric motive power. Covers in detail, all of the road_s diesel locomotives - the first-generation switchers, the early road units, and the postwar road-switchers. The more powerful and technologically advanced second-generation units, such as the U25C, the U28C, the SD-45, and the U33C, are also presented.
