Softcover. Condition: New. Kansas Central Narrow Gauge: Slim Rails Across the Midlands by I. E. Quastler The Kansas Central Railway was one of Americas pioneer narrow gauge railroads which started in 1871 and extended westward from the Missouri River at Leavenworth, Kansas. This slim princess of the prairies operated as both an independent carrier and, ultimately, as a branch of the Union Pacific Railroad. Kansas Central Narrow Gauge skillfully recounts the story of the bold dreams and economic folly which brought slim gauge railroading to the plains of northeast Kansas.

Softcover. Condition: New. For well over 100 years, there was a close and usually mutually beneficial relationship between the City of Parsons, Kansas, and what became the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad Company (M-K-T or -the Katy-). Parsons, located on rolling prairie land near the southeast corner of Kansas, depended largely on the Katy for its basic employment, those jobs which brought money into the community. In fact, during the first half of that period it was almost a textbook example of a railroad town. Covering the years 1865 to 2012, the authors relate the fascinating story of how Parsons was the site of the Katys main locomotive repair shop until its merger with the Union Pacific in 1988. Railroad historian I.E. Quastler has previously authored a number of Midwest railroad history topics, including Rock Island Line In Focus. Co-author James Reisdorff has authored or co-authored books such as The Man Who Wrecked 146 Locomotives. South Platte Press, softcover, 168 pages, 115 B&W photographs and illustrations.

Rock Island Line in focus : the railroad photographs (1898-1925) of Jules A. Bourquin
Language: English
Published by DeGolyer Library and R&I Publishing, Dallas, TX, 2007
ISBN 10: 0976985810 ISBN 13: 9780976985815
First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: As New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 160 pages : illustrations, maps ; 22 x 26 cm. ; illustrated wraps. Effectively unread, or read perhaps once. Around the turn of the twentieth century, a photographer in a small Kansas town, Horton, began to take pictures of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway. Although self-taught in photography, Jules A. Bourquin soon was recording impressive (and rare) images of locomotives, trains, railroaders, and facilities in and near his home town. Most of these pictures were saved for posterity by Everett L. DeGolyer, Jr, who deposited them in what became the DeGolyer Library at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. This presents a cross section of some of Bourquin's best railroad pictures, accompanied by detailed captions. These images give beautiful and fascinating insights into the world of railroads and railroaders approximately one hundred years ago.
