5 out of 5 stars Simple, informative, and useful   May 24, 2000

Being a neophyte to the train world, I picked up this book to learn the different models of locomotives I would hear rumbling through my town.

Not only does the book teach you the tricks of the trade for recognizing different manufacturers and their models, it presents line drawings to highlight the distinguishing features of each type of locomotive.

A fine companion to the volume on the older Diesels. Lots of pictures, good information. Comprehensive and easy to read.
