Author Brian Solomon brings the evolution of these powerful machines to life. Illustrated with stunning color photography, the book features the legendary locomotives of General Electric (GE), ALCO, Baldwin, Fairbanks-Morse, Electro-Motive Division (EMD), and more.
Along the way, Solomon carefully examines each new locomotive's role, explaining how the efficient diesel-electric replaced the labor-intensive steam locomotives. With more than 150 color and black-and-white images from past and present, this beautifully illustrated book is a must-have for any train enthusiast's coffee table.
