Item description from seller

LIKE NEW, No dust jacket as issued. No marks and tight binding. 142 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 29 cm. . . . . . . . This 142-page hardcover focuses on the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad's (ACL) passenger operations during the postwar era, roughly from the late 1940s through the decline of private rail passenger service. It combines a readable narrative with extensive visual documentation, drawing heavily from company publicity photos that showcase trains both inside and out, capturing the elegance and operations of the period. The book covers not only the glamorous New York-to-Florida streamliners but also the more mundane local and workaday passenger trains that served the ACL's extensive Southern network. It includes valuable reference material for enthusiasts and modelers, such as car and locomotive rosters, diagrams, drawings, and painting details. Overall, it provides a nostalgic yet informative look at one of the South's prominent railroads during a transformative time in American rail travel.…

We understand both the used and collectible book business and customer service. We will be happy to be of service if you find one of our offerings worthy of being added to your library.

Antique Mall Books has been in dealer in used, out-of-print and hard-to-find books for over 23 years. We are showing up as a relatively new account on ABE as we sold our bookstore in Ohio in 2023, and the new owners acquired all of our existing on-line accounts. We have sold over 200,000 books over the years, both on-line and in our bookstore, including a fair amount to Great Britain and many other locations worldwide. You can count on professional results from us as far as customer service goes. Our quantity of books may not be as large as most dealers but what we have in inventory are quality books accurately described (all with pictures) and professionally packaged and shipped.
