Striking black and white photographs commemorate the unsung heroes of railroading during the Great Depression, World War II, and the Postwar industrial boom. Vintage shots ? the gritty engineer at the throttle, the conductor waving from the caboose, the cross-country passenger riding in style and comfort ? capture bygone scenes of everyday folks intersecting with the greatest industry America has ever known. Compiled and written by Model Railroader senior editor Carl Swanson; introduction by Doug Ridell, locomotive engineer.
