Mutschler Founded in 1892, the BA&P eventually led the way in 20th century electrified railroading. In 1912, Anaconda Copper contracted with General Electric to convert the short line's operations from steam to electric. Consequently, the BA&P became a proving ground for electric-power railways. In particular, the Milwaukee Road - soon a forerunner in main line electrification - took a keen interest in its operation. The volume is illustrated throughout with b&w photographs of trains and railway workers. Publisher: Washington State Univ Pr Sales Rank: 401,139 Avg.
