A stunning all-color look at one of America's favorite railroads tackling some of the steepest grades in the east. B&O and Western
Maryland also make many appearances in this look at 1970's railroading in the rugged Allegheny Mountains of Maryland, West
Virginia and Pennsylvania. In addition to Tom's great photography, this book includes a locomotive roster, train sheet data, track
diagrams and much more! It's a great reference tool for model railroaders and a beautiful work of art.
