About this title

Synopsis

Five of the articles are on passenger and mixed (passenger and freight) trains and trolleys in a topographic setting that owing to mineral resources had a phenomenal network of rail lines. Written for the train buff, the historian of western transportation will find good material here. Heavily illustrated with modern and period photos. The sixth piece is on the steam-powered meter-gauge trains of Zimbabwe. Lacks index, bibliography. Published by Colorado Railroad Museum, PO Box 10, Golden, CO 80402.
