| Vintage Diesel Power By Brain Solomon For almost two centuries, railroads have been the backbone of the North American transportation system, and the remarkable evolution of diesel powered locomotives helped make this possible. Using more than 250 modern and period photographs, Vintage Diesel Power covers the critical three decades of diesel production from the prewar era when diesels replaced steam locomotives through the 1970s when railroads began to replace the first diesel engines. It profiles a variety of models from the five major builders and includes the most popular operating locomotives along with rare and unusual examples of diesel power. Photographs from all key North American regions and railroads are accompanied by detailed captions that identify the locomotives and explain their roles in freight and passenger operations. Prominent manufacturer include Electro-Motive, Alco, Baldwin, and GE, as well as iconic models like the Geeps, E and F units, PAs and FAs, Sharknoses, U-boats and more. This title spans the grand geographic and technological breadth of North American railroading. 192 Pages, 200 B&W/Color Photos, Softcover. |
