Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A great book, not (just) a coffee-table tome   May 6, 1999
There's no fluff, no superfluous text, just loads of well-chosen pictures depicting the broad range of post-WWII railroading in Canada. Despite it's necessarily 'overview' nature I think you will not be disappointed.


5 out of 5 stars An excellent record of Canadian Railroads from the 1950's on   September 5, 1998
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This book is a must for anyone interested in Canadian Railroads in the second half of the 20th century. The photography is spectacular and some of the scenes are breathtaking, notably the snow plows and Newfoundland railroad pictures. This book is sure to be a hit with all railroad fans as well. Worth every penny!
