Starlight On the Rail
|
| By : Jeff Brouws, Richard Steinheimer (Intro), Ed Delvers |
The years between the end of World War II and the mid-1960s saw a flowering of railroad photography in America. Photographers vied with one another to find archetypal railroad scenes that they recorded with novelistic precision. The most demanding technical efforts, however, were devoted to capturing the railroads at night. Here, in a stylish and moving book, are the last great steam engines, lonely motormen, silent stations, and more, all evoking the spirit of night railroading-as quintessentially American as cool jazz-in its glory days.

The Last Steam Railroad in America

| By : O. Winston Link (Photographer), Thomas Garver |
O. Winston Link began photographing the Norfolk and Western, the last major steam railroad in America, in the mid-1950s, when the N&W was converting its operations from steam to diesel. He was pursuing a decade-old vision of photographing steam railroading at night using synchronized flash. This book, companion to his earlier best-selling Steam, Steel & Stars, also includes daytime photographs and two dozen dramatic color shots. 124 photographs, 100 in duotone and 24 in full color, 113/8 x 105/8"
