Great book on Union Pacific 'City Fleet' passenger trains. Great photo's from the 1930's to 1971, timetables, lots of picture's of the UP M1000's, Fairbanks Morse, EMD E-2's to E-9's Diesel's, GM Aero Train, Milwauke RR, Chicago & North Western RR, and Southern Pacific joint train's & Steam locomotive's. Bit dissapointed all the photo's are black & white & lack's a bit information on locomotive rosters, but still worth the money.
In spite of the beautiful full-color cover, all pictures inside this book are black-and-white. The cover implies a collection of color photographs. The beauty of Union Pacific's passenger equipment was in its Armour Yellow and Harbor Mist Gray paint scheme. This book was a disappointment, as the UP's former glory was buried in tones of black, white and gray.
Hey, buy the book because I want the history of Union Pacific, and needed to know more about their machines, training, and tours, the book is excellent, thank you! I would like to receive more information about new books,
