| Rio Grande Steam Locomotives: Standard Gauge |
| By : Donald J. Heimburger |
This nostalgic work traces the development of Rio Grande’s steam locomotives from the early days to the last days of steam when locomotive fires were dropped and diesels took over the task of hauling tonnage through the beautiful but rugged Western terrain. Filled with highlights of numerous standard gauge steam locomotives, from the 0-6-0 and 4-6-2 to the giant 2-8-8-2 and 4-6-6-4. Special chapters feature Rio Grande steamers built by the American Locomotive Co., and its predecessor companies, plus builder’s photographs from the Baldwin Locomotive Works.
