A little-known narrow-gauge empire consisting of over 700 miles of three-foot rail, stretching from the southern tip of Illinois to Fort Worth, Texas, was the genesis of the St. Louis Southwestern Railway, better known as the Cotton Belt. Cotton Belt Locomotives documents a proud tradition going back a full century. More than 300 photographs, dozens of diagrams, and four maps illustrate the book. Strapac's thorough research delineates the history of the railway and its antecedents.
