Great Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
I gave this as a gift and it was a great hit. He had been looking for this book for years. This book gives you all sorts of details about desiel engines that aren't found elsewhere. It is a great companion the the Steam Locomotive Cyclopedia for train buffs.
Dated, But Still Useful
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This is truly a classic in the field of motive power books. Readers will find crisply printed diagrams, technical information and well reproduced pictures on large-sized pages. This is not a volume to put on your workbench as it is large. Since the content is somewhat dated; i.e. you won't find many 2nd generation units in there, I wish Kalmbach would develop and print an updated edition; I know I'd buy it. Highly recommended.
Must have for diesel

I like this almost as much as the steam version. For roster info, I use Marre's Contemporary Diesel Spotters Guide 2nd Edition
Currently the best planbook available
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
If you want to build diesels from scratch, this is the best planbook you will find. There are photos, write-up and other data also! The only things it lacks, are more roster info and detail drawings of fans, lights etc, which would be helpful in model building.
