Baltimore & Ohio Steam Locomotives: The Last 30 Years 1928 - 1958
|
| By : Thomas W. Dixon |
This book is primarily a photo album of Baltimore & Ohio's steam locomotive fleet from the 1920s through to the end of steam, and includes excellent photos from Leonard Rice and Bruce Fales, as well as others. The photos are divided between exiting action scenes and portraits, making the book appealing to B&O fans of all types and to modelers. Many B&O official mechanical diagrams are reproduced from a 1954 Diagram book, showing the fleet at the very end of its life. The book is intended as a general overview of B&O power in the second quarter of the 20th Century, when it reached its apogee and then declined, supplanted by diesels. Many of the photos have not been published before.

Classic North American Steam
|
| By : Nils Huxtable |
An era ended in 1960, when the major railroads in the United States dieselized. Having served the continent for more than a century, North America's most visible symbol of industrial supremacy was obsolete. In railroad yards everywhere, thousands of steam engines stood gathering rust or waiting silently for a call to service that never came; still more perished unceremoniously, sold off and cut up for scrap metal. But a handful of railroads went out of their way to keep steam alive. This stunning volume is a pictorial tribute to working steam in North America, beautifully illustrated and lovingly told.
