Chicago and North Western System Passenger Service: The Postwar Years
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Excellent book covering postwar C & NW passenger service and equipment. Some very good information on secondary trains and local train service. In addition to text and photos, there are several inclusions of pages from public timetables over different time periods to give examples of the level of service on each of the major routes, Twin Cities, upper pennisula and the Overland Route. Recoomend purchasing the companion book on passenger equipment by Dorin to complement this book with more equipment photos. Good photos of trains in service.
