Picture vast areas of burning sand and hot rock--uninhabited terrain
teeming with cactus. Now picture today's fast, colorful trains traveling
through this beautiful but harsh landscape. This new book is a dramatic
winner in every respect!
In this deluxe 172-page coffee table
volume, author/photographer Steve Schmollinger has assembled a large
variety of spectacular modern-day images of railroading in the desert.
He has included a range of states, of railroads both large and small,
and trains hauling everything from general merchandise, to unit coal
trains, to container and inter-modal trains.
With detailed
historical commentary to help understand present-day railroading in the
West, Desert Railroading is a colorful tribute to past, present and
future railroads that serve this region.
